My Son John: Video Availability


Has anyone a clue about why My Son John, or for that matter, Mission To Moscow, and other films are not available on VHS and.or DVD? Are there any links that deal with these questions?

reply

I have both.

They are unavailable now. However, given that Mission to Moscow is a Mike Curtiz film and stars Walter Huston it will come out sometime.

My Son John will likely never see the light of day. I recently converted a pristine VHS copy to DVD, it runs 2:03. It remains today as hallucinatory as when I first saw it over 40 years ago.

As Dean Jagger sings in the movie with his American Legion hat on..."if you don't love your Uncle Sammie, go back where you belong."

Hallucinatory?? What are you talking about??

This movie is available on DVD, but I believe they are bootleg copies. It has never been officially released on DVD.


Just google "My Son John" DVD and there are copies that cost around $25 for sale.
