FOX: Why so few Elia Kazan on DVD (1 Viewer)

[Larry Bevil]

Elia Kazan directed several excellent movies but there are very few that have been placed on DVD. I would like to see more of this director's movies placed on DVD. These films in particular:

Boomerang
Pinky
Panic in the Streets
Viva Zapata
Man on a Tightrope
A Face in the Crowd
Wild River

Perhaps the Studios are still "Blacklisting" him.

 

[Larry Bevil]

I would hope those studio's are not so immature as to still carry on the blacklisting of Kazan. That was in 1952. I know there are a few Hollywood pinheads, ie Nick Nolte and Ed Harris, that seem to have a misguided need to "stiff" Kazan, but I would think Fox would be more upright and release great movies in their vault. Kazan made some great movies, far better than many of the current crop coming out of the studio's these days.
