Michael Craig and Patrick McGoohan give memorably fiery performances as ideological opposites fighting to save the life of a gravely injured young girl in Life for Ruth. Co-starring Janet Munro in a BAFTA-nominated performance, this tense, emotionally-charged drama from director Basil Dearden is featured here as a brand-new remaster from original film elements in its original theatrical aspect ratio. Badly injured in a boating accident, John and Pat Harriss daughter Ruth is rushed to hospital. They are told that an urgent blood transfusion is needed, but John refuses his consent on religious grounds even though that would mean his daughters certain death.
