'My Foolish Heart' crops up quite a lot on the TV over here in the UK.
It might even be available on video.

I like the film, I'm a big Dana Andrews fan so maybe I'm prejudiced.  It
bears little resemblance the the story, to the extent that it makes you
wonder why they bothered paying JDS for the rights to the story when the
script bears hardly any resemblance to it.  People will like the film if
they enjoy old Hollywood 'weepy' type movies.  Of its type, it's very
well done.  But if you don't like that kind of film I shouldn't bother
seeking it out.
