Is this movie available on DVD or even VHS? I am a huge Jim Carroll fan, of both his writing and his music, and I loved the short story "Curtis's Charm" (from Fear of Dreaming). His assistant and webmaster Cassie has said that this is a much better Carroll adaptation than Scott Kalvert's "The Basketball Diaries." (I did prefer the book to the film on that one.) Any chance I can find this ANYWHERE?
shareThe movie is only available on VHS. You can find it at http://www.videoflicks.com for $9.99 US$. You could probably even find it on eBay.
The soundtrack for the movie is awesome! The last track on the CD is a recording of Jim Carroll reading his short story "Curtis's Charm". It's really hard to find a copy of the soundtrack since it's out of print. I found my copy of it on eBay.
I'd like to see this film. Unfortunately, it hardly ever pops up on eBay, it's not available on Amazon.com, and on Amazon.ca there's a VHS that's like $40 plus $6.50 shipping.
sharestill no DVD... and why is this rated so low here? maybe cuz it's impossible to see? great film that I saw in nyc upon release. a shame that it should be lost!
