This film has been released on DVD in Region 1 as one of three WWII films on a single disc. There is another Region 4 release, also on a disc with two other films, but not the same ones as the Region 1. I have not seen any reviews of either. There is also a UK Region 2 edition of The Way Ahead scheduled for release on 27 May 2004 from Carlton Visual Entertainment. As this looks to be of the original version with a running time of 110 minutes, and previous releases from this source have been of reasonable quality from the reviews I have read, I suspect that this will be the edition of choice for this film. On the basis that I cannot readily recommend the Region 4, I will award this to the Region 2 simply for including the original version.
