Anecdotes
There were at least two previous attempts to bring David Garnett's source novella to the screen, by Bernhard Wicki in the 1930s and by William Wyler in the 1950s. Thanks in part to the story's themes of racism and mixed marriage, both failed to secure sufficient funds.

Sailors Return

I cannot review or vote for this film as, like the other people, I cannot obtain a copy of the film!!

I knew the Sailors Return at Chaldon Herring well in the early 1960s and my mother knew it in the 1930s when members of the Chaldon Powis Literary group lived in the village. David Garrett, member of the Bloomsbury Group and author of The Sailor's Return, was a frequent visitor to Chaldon and wrote the book using the name of the local pub and wove in stories he heard when staying in the village.

I too would love to have a copy of the film.
