{"product_id":"young-lovers-mod-dvd-movie","title":"Young Lovers (MOD) (DVD MOVIE)","description":"Heat and passion from young lovers Carol and Guy radiates from ballroom to bedroom in director Ida Lupino's compassionate melodrama about the horrors of polio. Poised to break into the big time, Carol relies on Guy to steer her raw dancing talent and star appeal into a livelihood for them both. Just as they become engaged to be married, Carol falls ill, and is diagnosed with polio. Guy leaves the stage for a stable job in real estate to provide for his paralyzed fiance. Carol fears she will never dance again, and robbed of her ability as a lover, she sees herself as half a woman, with no choice but to shun Guy. Lost in a dark hole of self-loathing, Carol's crushed dreams of stardom haunt her, leaving her feeling disfigured and unattractive. With the help of fellow hospital patient, Len, Carol discovers a will to live, and a powerful self-realization in the face of personal tragedy.\u003cp\u003eAlready an established movie star in the 1930s and 40s (\u003ci\u003eThe Adventures of Sherlock Holmes\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHigh Sierra\u003c\/i\u003e), Ida Lupino's career shifted gears in 1949. During production of \u003ci\u003eNot Wanted\u003c\/i\u003e, which was co-written by Lupino, director Elmer Clifton suffered a major heart attack.
