The Very Thought of You is a film that captures a fleeting moment in time, set against the backdrop of World War II. The chemistry between the two sergeants, Dave and 'Fixit', feels genuine and relatable, drawing you into their brief romantic escapades with Janet and Cora. The pacing is quite mellow, allowing the emotional undertones to really resonate. There's a certain charm in how the film portrays young love amidst the chaos of war, and the performances, while not overly dramatic, have a sincerity that elevates the narrative. It’s not flashy, but it has a warmth that sticks with you, showcasing a slice of life that feels both nostalgic and poignant.
The film has had limited format releases over the years, mainly appearing on VHS and occasionally on DVD. Its scarcity adds to its allure among collectors, as it’s not one of the more widely circulated titles. Interest seems to be growing, especially from those who appreciate wartime romances and the charm of 1940s cinema. Keep an eye out for original posters and promotional materials, as those tend to pop up at auctions and film fairs, but they can be hit or miss in terms of condition.
