A lavish costume drama adapted from a romantic novel and based (fairly loosely) on historical events, Saraband for Dead Lovers seems more the kind of subject usually tackled by Rank's subsidiary Gainsborough - a similarity underlined by the casting of Gainsborough's top male star at the time, Stewart Granger, in the lead.
