Who do we bother to get this on DVD???

Okay, so this is one of my all time favorite films, and since DVD came along, I've been dying for this to come out. So far, nothing. I would love a suped up, commentary laden, making of docs, etc. version but I would settle for a stripped down, nothing but the film version. I'd even settle for a non-widescreen version, although that would lose a lot of the beauty of this movie. I recently watched my well-worn VHS copy and re-read the book, but seeing as how I saw this for the first time in a theatre (staying to see it twice), I really need a DVD! Does anyone know who to bug and pester to get this done?

p.s. Whenever I am feeling calm and yet disjointed, like standing around outside in the middle of the night alone, the word 'Fingerbone' always finds its way whispered through my lips... Ok, so maybe I'm slightly distracted by the possibilities of life...

Regarding who to pester.Visit the Digital Bits web site.Look down the menu for studio links.Find the studio that did the video.Most of them are listed with both website and e-mail addresses.I've used these addys many many times to whine about lack of product.Happy to say that almost all of my wish list has materialised in the last few years.Hud.Grapes of Wrath.Little Big Man.Scarecrow.
Also,you can preorder DVD's on Amazon for those films you want to see on DVD that aren't.EACH time you click the preorder button,you are basically voting for that film to be DVDed.I must have voted 100's of times for Hud and Little Big Man.

Thanks for the info... I was also incredibly happy about 'Little Big Man.' It was the first time I got to see it letterboxed! One of my top 10!
