I want to buy this movie on VHS
I had a small roll in this film and would like to see myself young again! *G*
Does anyone know where I can purchase this film??
I'm also chasing a copy on vhs,having recently bought a copy of the US poster for the film.I am an old fan of Joe Hill,and would love to see the film.It's great to hear you were in the movie-what part did you play?
Anyway,if I hear anything about copies of the movie,I'll let you know.If you read this message,let me know.

Hi there, I played a wobbley. I carried Joe Hill's casket, and had a few little parts, I was basically an extra. I stood on a box and recited "I stand on this box, to get back my right to stand on this box!"
Mostly I want this movie so I can prove to my wife that I was thin at one point in my life! :) Please let me know if you find anything about buying the one by Bo Widerberg, and I will do the same!
I did get a copy from the University of Utah of Joe Hill that they made, it's more recent but it tells the story. Get ahold of them and you can buy a copy for around 20.00 (I think, it was awhile ago and my wife got it for me).
Take care
Thorne EMI in England once released it on VHS. A friend of mine tracked it down with difficulty and bought a copy. It's PAL.
Try e-bay. Good luck.
I vaguely remember it but my recollection is that it was very good.
Thank you for your reply, I'm sorry but I don't understand what PAL is, what does that mean? I'm not giving up on finding it although it would be easier to give up! :)
PAL is the TV colour system used in the UK and much of Europe. It's incompatible with the American NTSC system. It's a big problem with cassettes, but DVDs will usually play on computers regardless of the system they were designed to be viewed on. You might get a certain amount of jerkiness in the movements caused by the conversion, but any I have seen have worked fine. You can get software that performs the conversion between standards, and there are commercial companies that can do it.
