The Blue Dress is a 70-minute romantic idyll which threatens to culminate in tragedy at any moment. Denholm Elliott plays a hard-bitten, middle-aged British journalist. Though he resists the sensation, Elliott falls in love with the much younger Felicity Dean. But Dean carries within her a secret that may destroy them both. Filmed for British television in 1983, The Blue Dress was given its American premiere two years later on cable's Arts & Entertainment network.
