Could this film be rediscovered given the popularity of Downton Abbey?


Downton Abbey reminds me a lot of this film. Do you think Cavalcade has a chance of being rediscovered and becoming a "classic" film?

I'm always interested to hear about works that fade into obscurity only to be re-discovered decades later. Kate Chopin's novella "The Awakening" is an example that comes to mind: it was brought back into popularity in the 1970s' sexual revolution.

I think the better question would be: Could this film be rediscovered with the release of the DVD/BluRay?

I doubt "Cavalcade" will have many fanatical fans; it's not that great a film.
