When ex-spy David Somers takes a low-profile job in the country cataloguing a butterfly collection, he finds that dangerous work continues to pursue him. David grows fond of his employer's niece, a fragile, fey young woman named Sophie. When Sophie is framed for the murder of spiteful handyman Hick, Somers becomes embroiled in a murder mystery and goes on the run with the beautiful suspect, staying one step ahead of the police until the breathless climax.

The enigmatically titled The Clouded Yellow is a gentle, enjoyable and very British thriller starring the Oscar nominated and Emmy Award winning Trevor Howard in one of his most best roles. The cast also includes such favourites as Jean Simmons, Kenneth More , Barry Jones and André Morell, and was directed by Ralph Thomas, the man who brought us Doctor in the House and the 1959 remake of The 39 Steps.

The film was released on DVD in the UK back in October 2008 by Eureka (you can read our review here) and boasted a very impressive transfer but caught a little flack for missing an opening scene that was present on when it was screened on TV. Now that's about to be put right when the film is re-released by Eureka on 22nd March in an uncut version containing 10 minutes of extra footage for the RRP of £15.99. This is the first DVD release anywhere in the world of the uncut version of the film.
