Product Description:

SOMETHING TO LIVE FOR is the last of director George Stevens' "small" films, before he concentrated full-time on such blockbusters as SHANE and GIANT. Joan Fontaine plays a popular actress who descends into alcoholism. Ray Milland, in an unofficial extension of his LOST WEEKEND role, plays a reformed drunkard who comes to Fontaine's rescue. He encourages her to join Alcoholics Anonymous--one of the first times that this organization was given any kind of screen treatment. Milland's concern strains his relationship with his wife (Teresa Wright), who doubts that Ray's interest in Fontaine is merely humanitarian. But Milland refuses to endanger his marriage no matter how strong his feelings towards Fontaine--nor how much the audience wants him to.
