    The House Without A Christmas Tree

    I just received an email from Lisa Lucas (Addie) and thought I would post it: Hi Ronald Yes, it is me, Addie. Anyway, I would be happy to autograph your DVD but I wish I could find something better than just my signature. I will see if I have any old photos from the filming of the shows...

    The House Without A Christmas Tree

    Well, allright! An early Christmas present indeed. Can't wait to get it.

    Upcoming Caine Mutiny

    The guy on the far right looks like Martin Balsam, the one next to Bogey almost looks like Sid Cesar (or a reasonable facimile).

    Any JAWS fans out there?

    With all of the interest here "your gonna need a bigger petition!" :-) Good luck! Coincidentaly I saw them film some of it in the summer of 1974 on Martha's Vinyard when I was 14.

    The House Without A Christmas Tree

    I should have thought of this before but I dug out the VHS box and it says Fox video. I will email them or contact them somehow, perhaps too late for this season though.

    The House Without A Christmas Tree

    I wonder who owns this so that we can ask about a forthcoming DVD. I have the VHS version but it is not very good as the tracking keeps drifting when played. An interesting story, years ago I asked my local video store if they could order "A House without a Christmas tree" for the holidays...

    The House without a Christmas Tree

    Love this early 70's holiday nugget. As far as I can tell, it has not been released on DVD. I noticed on IMDB it had the "DVD" flag lit under USA but when I clicked on it, it brought me to Amazons site saying it is not available yet on DVD with no date given. Does this mean it will soon be...

    IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE (SPECIAL COLLECTOR'S EDITION) coming October 31 from Paramount!

    I came across a neat little book recently, its a lawyers take on the movie and quite humorous. But I have forgotten the title and author, has anyone seen it or remember it?

    Who determines DVD releases? (and why)

    I ask this partly in jest but also in seriousnes as well. For instance 2 movies that I love and haven't seen since I switched over to DVD in 1998 are "The Brinks Job" and "The Friends of Eddie Coyle." Both these movies have good reviews, good direction and stellar cast. Yet with hundreds older...

    Wings (1927) for 2006 release?

    I hope this comes out on DVD, I have never seen it and I grew up in back of William Wellmans house in Brookline, MA.

    John Ford - The Searchers SE 2006 confirmation

    What really needs work and would be absolutely stunning is "The Quiet Man." The DVD is just mushy as I am sure it has been noted here before, but can you imagine what this film would look like if it were given the treatment.

    Eyes On The Prize / rights update

    Both series? If I remember correctly there were basically 2 series, are both being redone and broadcast i wonder?

    An article about the "Last Days of Blockbusters"...

    Great article and I highly recommend the recent book the author has written, a real eyeopener and good read.

    Alistair Cooke's "America"

    With Mr. Cooke's recent passing I got to wondering if this series is out on DVD yet or if anyone has heard if it will be released? I haven't seen it in 20 years but remember it as being very good. Thanks

    Obscure Christmas Titles

    I would have to say, "A house without a Christmas tree" deserves a place on the platter. It came out in 1972 as a Hallmark Hall of Fame starring Jason Robards, Mildred Natwick and the girl who plays the protagonist. Excellent production and writing and a tug at the old heart strings.
