Does Warner bros still have the rights to it? If so I wish we could get this to the top of the release list. In an anamorphic OAR of course.

WB was only the theatrical distrib. This was produced by CBS' (2nd) short-lived attempt to make theatrical features.

As such, a DVD release would be through Paramount.

"High Road To China" was actually produced by China-based Golden Harvest Films, not CBS. Warner Bros. did indeed have theatrical rights, and for a time, home-video as well (don't know if they still have home video rights). The television rights are currently held by ITC/Carlton America. So I seriously doubt Paramount would have home video rights, unless Lions Gate would now have them.

I must have confused it with another film. Thanks for the correction.

Just saw this on one of the movie channels (ie-HBO,etc) and would love to see this movie released on dvd. Although, judging by the version I saw on tv. The picture needs a lot of cleanup.

I wouldn't mind seeing High Road to China paired with another Tom Sellick vehicle and a fine period piece, Lassiter. I haven't seen either film since they were released theatrically. Lassiter I get a kick out of seeing Jane Seymour sprawled out nude across the bed chattering on obliviously while gnawing on a chicken wing -- or was it a drumstick.

Who controls Lassiter now?

Looks like the same story as High Road to China--another Golden Harvest title.

I used to watch both movies a lot when I was a kid, since we had friends in the states recording stuff for us when we lived in Germany, and those were a couple of the films we got, partially because my mother was a big fan of Magnum PI.

I wouldn't mind seeing both films again.

I went to Golden Harvest's site. And emailed asking about the movie. Haven't heard back.

High Road To China is out already in Australia and a couple of other countries but, alas, it's pan/scan and the picture quality is VERY ho-hum!

I'd be so in there for a decent re-master and 16x9 transfer! I love this movie!
