Wish it would come on TCM

I have never seen The Frisco Kid, and I want to because of its two stars. The only problem is that it's nowhere on VHS or DVD. I would therefore believe that, until this so-called Feb DVD release, it would air on Turner Classic Movies. I emailed them, but they're not airing it. As a little known film, I wish they would!

This was a great film, and I definitely recommend it. It is a heartwarming story of two characters from totally different worlds that become friends... a good lesson for everyone today!

I remember reading the book, too. It was very cute.

It's definitely available on DVD. I bought my copy from Amazon. But it does show up on the various Encore channels, too.

Funny you should ask, but 10 years later from your post, they just played it on Turner Classic Movies! If you are still interested, it may be on their OnDemand feature.

It was just on TCM last week. I DVRed it and was sadly disappointed. It's eminently skippable.
