There are usually DVD copies for sale on eBay (it's where I got mine). The film has been released twice on DVD in Hong Kong (Region 2 NTSC): the 2nd release is a pristine transfer in the proper theatrical ratio. The cover has a picture of Mark and Tracy walking through grass on it. The other DVD is in 4:3 ratio, is not as good a transfer as the other and the cover has four pictures on it. Hope this is of use and happy hunting. It is my absolute favourite film of all time.

Woah, completely forgotten this, saw it when I was a kid and it was fantastic, now it just looks like a snapshot of my childhood. Is it available anywhere? I can't find it at online places like Lovefilm.

Thanks Cathy. Hard as it is to face it but you're right. There are times, while listening to the Bee Gees songs, that I wish I could turn back time. But that is what life is all about. Merry Christmas to you too (and to all the Bee Gees fans!)

Beautiful song! Of course, it's by the Bee Gees, all their songs are beautiful just like them.Cathy |
