This under-appreciated and "lost" little gem needs to be ressurected for physical media. It has only ever been issued on VHS (twice, I believe, by 2 different distributors). It features a quite skilled ensemble cast including Richard Kiley and Peter Coyote along with supporting roles by Betsy Palmer and Mildred Dunnock. The storyline may not be as exciting as some contemporary films. However, I found myself drawn into this film the first time I saw it. I attribute it to the well-acted lead by Jean Stapleton who is nothing like her predecessor "Edith Bunker". It is a wonderful character study!
I found that it is owned by Stuart Millar-Pantheon. Not sure if it is now owned by another production company but I thought maybe bringing it some attention might shed some light on the prospects of a company like Kino possibly bringing this never-on-dvd or BR film to commercial release. Is anyone familiar with this wonderful film?
