Saturday Cinema: The Wild Heart

on BBC Two England

starring Jennifer Jones, David Farrar with Cyril Cusack.

This story of tempestuous romance was photographed in the border country of Shropshire - the setting of Mary Webb's novel "Gone to Earth", from which it is adapted.
Jennifer Jones, who was the wife of David O. Selznick, came from Hollywood to star as Hazel Woodus, an untamed country girl - a creature of the moorland like the animals she befriends but who barely comprehends the customs of human society.
