That's the page and a quick click is all that's needed to record a vote.
Only the Top Twelve were listed until fairly recently, maybe this is some kind of replacement for the no-show DVD decision. Most happily, many of my favorites are in there, but surprisingly, practically no noirs!
Sing your worries away, smile, be kind and accentuate the positive!
DVD wish list: The Accused (48), Margie (46), I'll Get By (50), The Constant Nymph (43), The Voice of the Turtle (47), The Barretts of Wimpole Street (34), Her Twelve Men (54), The Lost Moment (47), I Walk Alone (48), The Glass...

Re: TCM's Top 200 films not on DVD
Ride the Pink Horse, Beggars of Life, and The Wind are some titles I would have voted for.

You can go ahead and vote for them, by using the search box - the results are updated daily from what it says on the page.
I used to search for the rankings individually for each film I was interested in (as until very recently, they showed only the top 12) and quite a few films I searched for that were somewhere in the top 200 late last year have been released since then by different studios, so I do find it very encouraging.
I also find it very interesting to see the Top 200 most wanted titles in a list like that - quite surprising in more ways that one.

You can vote for ANY film by typing it in the searchbox on top of the page, opening the page for this title and voting there.
Looks like they are including any OOP films (the Selznick/Hitchcock films) and public domain titles in need of a proper release. That would make sense.

Re: TCM's Top 200 films not on DVD
Lots of Bette Davis and Joan Crawford on the list and it's really great to see Norma Shearer's Smilin Through in the top 5. Hopefully WHV releases it as a double feature with the Jeanette MacDonald version.

Little Darlings (1980), My Cousin Rachel (1952), The Deep Blue Sea (1955), The White Cliffs of Dover (1944), Born to Be Bad (1950), Ivy (1947), Reckless (1935), Springtime in the Rockies (1942), The Barretts of Wimpole Street

Re: TCM's Top 200 films not on DVD
So many great titles. The Summer Under the Stars marathon is really going to help voting.

Re: TCM's Top 200 films not on DVD
I'm just concerned that some people might be voting multiple times (with multiple adresses?) as most titles have gone up by 1 to 40 votes in the past week, while some Crawford titles have gone up by 200 or 350 votes during the same time (Above Suspicion for one).....Someone already noted how many Crawford films populate the top 200....I hope it's just a coincidence, but the difference seems a bit big for that!

They can't tell if multiple addresses were used. I guess with all the votes, Above Suspicion is a shoo in for Crawford Vol 3 or if WHV does a Hollywood Goes to War set (which would be a great idea).
P.S. Joan has a HUGE following so I wouldn't be surprised if all her fans voted for those titles especially if they hadn't seen them in a long time.

Re: TCM's Top 200 films not on DVD
Would love a Hollywood Goes to War set!!!!! Great idea! Would also love a set about Wartime tearjerkers (whether WW1 or WW2) with titles like Three Comrades, The White Cliffs of Dover, Waterloo Bridge, Journey for Margaret, etc.
