love this movie


Does anyone know if the film distributor(I think it's Paramount)is EVER going to release this fine film on DVD or VHS??? They have crapola by the caseload - B movie heaven - but this one's still in the can!

saw it on the Bravo channel 10 years ago - maybe ask them to play it again

I saw this movie on AMC years ago before they went commercial.I haven't ever forgotten it.Looked for it on TCM,but no dice.IT was extraordinary!! It is underrated,underappreciated,neglected,almost to the point of being trash-heeped.Just a wonderful,human family drama.It is a travesty that it isn't on DVD!!!!!!

I'm betting the Agee estate is holding out.

This is one of my all-time favorite movies. Like so many of my favorites, it is hard to find on video. I did rent it when it was on VHS many years ago so it is out there.
BTW, Robert Preston was a genuinely beautiful person. My mom was his attending nurse in his last days on earth and she said he was so sweet.

Just discovered that you can download it from Amazon.com for 9.99 and transfer it to DVD. Awesome, huh?

I was just discussing the movie with my mom and how we loved it when they used to air it on TV when I was a kid. Thank you for directing me to Amazon I will try that. It is a true gem.
