Back Street (1961) DVD
Ambitious but thwarted, Rae Smith meets handsome Marine Paul
Saxon, (of the Saxon department store chain), as he passes through
Lincoln, Nebraska, on his way home from World War II. There's a
definite spark between them but circumstances intervene and he leaves
town without her. Later she learns he's married. Determined to make it
as a fashion designer, Rae moves to New York and becomes a great
success. One day she happens to meet Paul again and again there's
that spark but he's still married so, as a form of escape, Rae moves to
Rome to set up shop. Once again she meets Paul and finally they begin
an actual affair since Paul's shrewish, drunken wife, Liz, won't give him
a divorce. Time passes, the affair continues whenever time and place
