TCM has or at any rate had it, I know, and screened it specially some 15 years ago, which is when I saw it. This is my favourite film, and the original version is far more resonant thematically, with important exchanges between Portman and Sim. It is a superlatively enchanting thing. Look for it. You owe it to yourself to leave no stone unturned. It is well worth pursuing.
