'I'll Never Forget You'


Hello, I was just wondering if anyone out there knows how I might get a copy of "I'll Never Forget You" I have been looking for years and I have been told it was available at one time. Please help if you can. Thanks, Suzie

Hi ThelmaLou,

You can get a copy of this video at http://www.robertsvideos.com/. The outfit specializes in hard to find films. Be aware, however, that it is a 'bootleg' copy and so the quality is below average. Nevertheless, it's a movie worth having. I saw it only once when I was 9--over 40 years ago, and it was memorable then.

I'm frankly on a mission to get some of Tyrone Power's lesser known movies reissued. I'm just starting my investigations of how best to do that and so far have found a contact at 20th Century Fox in London. I spoke once to a guy who was employed at 20th Century Fox as a publicist for 25 years. He sells a lot of these films as copies--I think recorded from TV. Even so, he knows that The House on the Square (or as he knows it better, "I'll Never Forget You") is impossible to find in a pristine format. He told me that unless they issued some kind of commemorative package for Ty Power, we'd (the public)likely never see a top-notch version of "I'll Never Forget You."

By the way, if you liked I'll Never Forget You, you'll really enjoy "Enchanted" with David Niven and Teresa Wright It's a charming story of two WWII young officers, a man and a woman, whom fate brings together because of a shared love story in their parents' past. The movie weaves in and out of time between the Boar Wars and WWII, but it's not a film with a political agenda. It's definitely a love story. It's black and white, but the color is in the story. You can get used copies on e-bay and I think Amazon.com actually sells them new, as the movie was reissued in 1999. --Jaz

The David Niven/Teresa Wright film was Enchantment.

Search for title "Enchantment" (1948) starring Niven and Wright.

Have you had any lock in finding a good copy?

Hi: I too have been looking for this film for a long time. I saw it once in the theaters when I was a kid and fell in love with the film. I saw it one more time on TV way back in the B/W era. Did you find a copy yet? Tx.Jaybird

I Have a good memory, it's just short.

reply

Help. I have been looking off and on for ten years. The movie Somewhere in Time is a cheap rip off of this movie.

reply

I saw the movie Ill Never Forget You as a child and I have never forgotton it. If anyone has any idea where I could purchase it I would appreciate that information very much......Thanks

I also saw it in the 60's on tv and never forgot it. It is one of my all time favorites. I have a very poor quality copy which I transfered to a dvd. It will just have to do until it is released, if it ever is. I would love to see it in the original Technicolor print. It would be a great candidate for a restoration. Feel free to contact me I would love to hear from you all.

I'm on the same page with all of you! I saw this on TV late at night in the late 60s or early 70s. I'm not particularly sentimental, but this movie really touched me and, as the title implies, I've never forgotten it. I've been on the lookout for it for decades and have never caught it on TV again. I can't believe the stupidity of Hollywood politics (viz. the recent writer's strike) that do nothing but prevent the public from enjoying the work of creative people.

If anyone has it, please contact me

GREAT NEWS!!!! I'll Never Forget You is going to be released at long last as part of new Tyrone Power collection coming out in July. It will include 10 of his films. I've already pre-ordered mine from Amazon.

This film is being released next week,july 22 or 21st in a boxed set of Ty's I received a advanced copy from a friend. Its flip side is The Luck of the Irish in green tint for Ireland . I'll never forget you was awesome a first time I've ever seen it ever it was great,its dieing for a remake. The ending needs a little tweaking.It draws you in...... Its almost a 100 % perfect film except for that ending. I'd rewrite the remake a bit differently overall its top notch right up there with Zorro,Jesse james,an Razors edge Look for it next week...enjoy the treat

Has anyone managed to find a copy , DVd or video of the House In The SquareI now live in Australia and I have been waiting for years for it to come on Turner Classic Movies on our pay TV. regards from Ann on the gold Coast of OZ

reply

Ann, as you no doubt know The House in the Square came out in North America in the Tyrone Power Matinee Idol Collection, under its US title, I'll Never Forget You. It's not available here as a single. Don't know its availability in Australia, though friends of mine in Sydney claim they can play Region 1 DVDs on their player (I can't recall which region Australia is!).

However, I doubt very much that TCM will ever run the film as they have only sporadic and fleeting access to the 20th Century Fox library and have only ever shown a handful of that studio's films, and then usually just once or twice. Even the Fox Movie Channel has never run it, to my knowledge.

Regards from the freezing east coast of the US!

And are you aware, Mr. hob, this is a remake of the 1933 film "Berkeley Square" starring Lesley Howard? No one else seems to be.

How shall the stars on the cheeks of this mandrill find a number?

reply

Indeed, Sir D.F., but I'm afraid that's Leslie Howard. A friend who just came back from a trip to London remarked to me yesterday that they'd stayed near "Berkley" Square (pronounced like the University), and was promptly corrected by my appalled English missus. Barbarian.

reply

Only You (sounds like another song) would know or care. Barbarian wife Babe and born a Brit! Tis too funny.

A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep.

reply

Was afreared that that "barbarian" remark would be misconstrued; it referred to my mispronouncing friend, not my wife. If I called Mrs. hob that she'd have me bound and pulled apart by four Mongolian ponies, feed my entrails to a pack of starving wolves, and place my speared head on a stake outside her yurt encampment overlooking the steppes.

I'll never forget.

reply

The only part of that that wouldn't be fair is putting yer head on a pole in some foreign land when it belongs here. And in time it would be covered with mold and insect tracks then all would be good. Of course, by then you wouldn't be burgermeister or able to find the perfeckt chapeau.

I shall take thy image of my decay'd head with me twixt soft dreams abed this eventide, on gossamer wings, nay, champagne wishes.

In the words of 18th-century Ty Power. How do we manage these unthreaded asides, all over?

reply

Our sides have never much been threaded, I suppose, except, perhaps, in the finest Egyptian cotton.

reply

Ah. Well, suggest we desist here and take up something else somewhere else. Adieu for the nonce.

"Somewhere in Time" is distinguished by the music and the marvelous hotel setting. It is substantially different from INFG and does not deserve the "rip- off" connotation. Why they did not give Ann Blyth a singing part in this film, I will never understand. That was one of the ways people entertained themselves in those days. But, of course, I like I'll Never Forget You primarily because Ann Blyth is in it, even if she doesn't sing. The film is available on Amazon but it comes with one other Tyrone Power film and a hefty price tag.

Go to iOffers.com. There are a few sellers. All are bootlegged off a tv presentation. I would choose the higher priced one (which I did not) as the seller knew the original source...mine is on a DVD-R, the worst type to use in a regular DVD playback machine. This was my first time using iOffers.com and I went too fast to purchase. Site is an alternate to overcrowded e-bay.

reply

I am delightfully surprised to find out how many people really like this film.

I have found two sources for it.
1. TCM I can hardly imagine that they would produce anything less than first rate material. Unfortunately, the problem is that it is part of a set of 5 CD's. The price is not too much but if you only want this one film ...

It is part of the Tyrone Power collection so that is how you search it out. 41.00 plus shipping is not so bad.

2. I found a copy on the dreaded ebay. I don't know how good a copy it will be, but it was copied from a 16mm film!!!!!! The seller was janesdvd.

Happy shopping you all.

".... I was just wondering if anyone out there knows how I might get a copy of "I'll Never Forget You" I have been looking for years and I have been told it was available at one time."

I realize that I am responding to a 5 year old request, but for others who may be interested I was able to get a copy of this film from NETFLIX. It was a Tyrone Power double feature DVD.

I saw this movie for the first and only time when I was 7. It made a tremendous impression on me primarily the scene of him going back in time and changing from BW to color. Sadly now that I am in my sixties the movie didn't live up to my dreams. I found the film plodding and hackneyed.

Dear SuzieQThelmaLou: you must buy the dvd Tyrone Power Matinee Idol box set.
It has ten of his films, including I'LL NEVER FORGET YOU. As well as THIS
ABOVE ALL and THAT WONDERFUL URGE. Great entertainment. Enjoy! Power ranks
with the top five leading men of the movies, along with Clark Gable, Bill
Holden, Cary Grant and Robert Taylor!
