    Missing Musicals

    The "Pepe" question has been brought up in HTF before. Never had a response from anyone, though. This was one of the few Columbia releases that had a wide distribution of 4 track mag prints. It was released in IB Technicolor. I also wish that Columbia would restore and release this title in...

    Here, I have to seriously disagree with you.
