The previous reviewer's summation of this movie seems to ring true, especially the part about seeing it over and over on HBO as a child. I have been looking for a copy of this movie for almost ten years ( video stores, garage sales, flea markets, etc.) and no such luck.
Does anyone have any ideas? Someone make me a copy for christ sake. I will send the BBC their royalties if it comes down to that.
Feel free to write me with any suggestions or comments on the movie.
I wouldn't hazard a guess at the plot or acting as I haven't seen the flick in about 21 years.
