the Girl With The Golden Eyes, one of the best French Cinema's secrets almost never replayed in art houses or festivals and I don't know why that is. I have been a fan of this movie for years since I first saw it at film school at UCLA . It is one of the most beautifully photographed French films of the 60's and was made by a father and son team, Cinematographer and director. I have been searching for a copy in ANY format: Beta, VHS, DVD (preferably) or even 16mm print. If anyone has any info on it's availability I would greatly appreciate hearing of it. thank you
