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 permit, but
then, Paul's young son finds out about Rae and Rae's
back-street world begins to crumble.
