Douglas Sirk pairs Rock Hudson and Jane Wyman for the second time in All That Heaven Allows, one of his most romantic and touching cinematic masterpieces! Wealthy widow Cary (Wyman) lives a repressive life in the New England suburbs with her two teenaged children. While prosperous, Cary's existence is molded on strict conventions and social hierarchies, making her feel both stifled and achingly lonely. When she meets Ron (Hudson), a free-spirited gardener, the two share an instant and unshakable attraction. However for their love to blossom Cary must break free from the social restrictions of her upper-class society, a society which disapproves of her relationship with Ron due to his relative youth and his "working-class" status. Sirk's glorious film, shot in brilliant Technicolour, is testimony not only to his artistry but his keen observations of 1950s American society.
