Requests
Hey guys,
Feel free to write in the comments below which movies you would like me to upload.
Remember I can’t just upload any movie, there a few rules that need to be followed in order to “green light” a film, the rules are the following:
- No Region 1 DVD/Bluray is available to purchase online.
- NEW For British films make sure the film isn’t available on Region 2 DVD otherwise I cannot upload it.
- Movie was released before the year 2004.
- Foreign films applies same rules, if the movie was released on DVD/Bluray but only in country of origin make sure it’s region locked, some studios release them with region 0 and include subtitles, in that case I will not upload them.
- Please make sure the film you want isn’t already available on Youtube, it takes me a lot of time to look and upload each film and to see that it’s already up on YT it ends up being a waste of time so make sure to check before requesting it.
Only 1 request each person per month. Actually, you can post 2 requests but the second one will be used only as a backup in case I don’t have the first one.
Note: in order to keep this section as clean as possible and easy to navigate I will delete the comments after the movies are uploaded, for those films that I don’t have I will also delete your comment but not before adding them to the list of wanted films.
Thanks.

Thanks for coming back!!
Hey Ryan.
Thanks for coming back, hope you’ve been well 🙂
No luck with those two films unfortunately, sorry!
Negative here, sorry, Tony.
Whoa! Let me first join the masses in heaping praise on this website! Bloody terrific! I have searched long and far for a place like this that specializes in obscure films, but the ones I have come across are either sketchy or invitation-only, and getting an invitation to those places seems next to impossible, so to find this place is a real boon! And that you take requests and offer streaming is really terrific. !
Right now I’m looking for Mac (1992) w/ John Turturro and the Nobuhiro Suwa film M/Other (1999).
Cheers, mate
Hey Lemmy.
Thank you very much for your words, I really appreciate it.
After seeing those type of websites you mention I thought that we needed a site like that but free and easy to access for everyone, that’s why I started with rarefilmm 🙂
I have those two films that you want, I will be uploading them very soon.
All the best,
Jon.
Hi sir!
Any chance you can find these two Chantal Akerman movies,
Histoires d’Amérique (1989)
Letters Home (1986)
Or any other rare Akerman for that matter. Thanks!
Hey Austin.
I have both films but ‘Letters Home’ is in French without subs, I’m guessing you don’t want it if it’s not subbed otherwise tell me and I’ll post a link here, I don’t post non-subbed films in the site but I can just leave a link here if you want, let me know.
Best,
Jon.
That’s great to hear Jon! Sure, if you don’t mind posting a link to “Letters Home” I’d really appreciate that. & does that mean “Histoires d’Amérique” will be uploaded to the site? I really appreciate the response, I’ve been looking for these for forever now!
Hey Austin.
Sorry for the delay.
I just posted “Histoires d’Amérique”.
And here’s a link where you can download unsubbed “Letters Home”:

Best,
Jon.
Thanks for the help. I will definitely wait for the subtitles on Marie-Louise. Been looking forward to seeing this film for quite some time. I’ll add “Time And Dreams” (1976) Documentary to my requests, please.

sven klangs combo 1976
Hello John I’m new to your site but have to say very very impressive. So here’s a challenge: the “Britalian” release “A Tale of Five Cities” (1951) – Bonar Colleano/Gina Lollobrigida/Evar Bartok … the original 86-min UK release please, not the butchered 82-min one that seems the only one generally available and which appears sometimes on TV courtesy of those very nice ladies and gentlemen at Talking Pictures. I heard a rumour that the Italian version is in fact a magnificent 95-mins. However; you’ll probably need to to the Italian Job to get your hands on that! Thanks and intrigued to get your thoughts…
Hi Michael.
Sorry that I couldn’t give you an answer earlier, I’m very busy with the uploads and trying to keep up with everything that some things I just forget.
IMDb doesn’t list a different runtime like it does on some movies but it is very possible that the Italian version is longer, I don’t have that version unfortunately, and it seems that the movie hasn’t been released in any form, not even VHS. All I was able to find was that the Italian version was show in the Catholic channel tv2000 3 times in 2014 and once in 2013, it probably hasn’t been shown again on Italian TV since then which is a shame but hopefully it will maybe next year, if they air it again I might be able to ask a friend to capture it.
Thank you for the support as always, I appreciate it.
Best,
Jon.
Thank you for your hard work. Amazing!
There are several films with the legendary Jean Gabin which still have never been subtitled into English… All of these titles are available on DVD (or VHS) in Europe, but do not have English subtitles:
“Gloria” (1933)
“Varietes” (1935)
“Le Messager” (1938)
“Pour l’amour du ciel” (1950)
“Tonnerre de Dieu” — there are DVD copies circulating, but only in very bad phonetic English (1965)
“Pour un soir..” (1931)
“Pour l’amour du ciel” (1950)
“La Sang a la Tete” (1952)– very bad phonetic English-subtitled version available online
“Coeurs joyeux” (1933) — I actually own a very good copy of this on a CD-ROM (but it doesn’t have any English subtitles)
“La Cas du docteur Laurent” (1956)
“Drapeau noir flotte sur la marmite” (1971)
“Paris-Beguin” (1931)
“Chacun sa Chance” (1930)
“Verdict” (1974) — Jean Gabin and Sophia Loren.
Thank you!
Maybe there are some French-speaking rarefilmm fans who can help to subtitle some of them? (( can dare to dream!)
For subtitles I find the best site is:
http://www.opensubtitles.org/ followed by https://subscene.com
If you can’t find subs in English (or your desired language) or you need to
resync, adjust or otherwise modify them, I use very good freeware:
http://www.nikse.dk/subtitleedit
It will do automatic translations using Google which can range from quite good
to somewhat comical, but mostly you get the idea. To English, I find transations
from Portuguese, Spanish and Italian to be quite good. From Romanian not bad,
from French not so good (I think French is much more idiomatic). From Germanic
and Scandanavian not bad. In any case, you may not get the subtleties of the
original, but you will understand what’s going on.
If you are really desparate, there is a Python script which uses speech to text
libraries to create a subtitle file directly from the film, then uses
translation libraries (using Google) to translate them. (this part doesn’t work unless you register for a Google API key, so I use subtitleedit to do the translation as they recommend in the instructions below)
I’ve tried it and the results are reasonable. It drops some of the dialogue but it does handle a good part of it and will give you an idea of what’s going on. Sometimes the results are pretty good and other times not so much. But it is quick (about 5m) and easy, so give it a try. If the results stink you are no worse off.

As long as it’s not on DVD I can still upload it even if it’s available on Amazon Prime, I have a copy although the quality on Amazon it’s probably better.
Ah. Sorry. *feels sheepish*
It’s all good Gabrielle, I appreciate that you are trying to help 🙂
Vittorio COttafavi’s AVANZI DI GALERA (1954) in Italian…could only manage to locate an unsubtitled French copy, alas!

I am new to the site but really enjoy it. Is there any chance that you might be able to upload The Conquering Horde (1931) Fay Wray and / or Two Gun Lady (1955) Peggy Castle ?
Here’s The Conquering Horde, Keith – https://ok.ru/video/1366502476432
Vlad – Thanks, but unfortunately I am unable to download from that source though I can see it. I would surely still appreciate an upload here if possible. Also, does anyone have or know of copies of 2 early Gary Cooper films, The Texan and The Spoilers ? I know they have been shown at film collector conventions but apparently nowhere else.
There are two grab video sites which usually works for ok ru(not always) at least the first one
https://getvideo.at/en/
https://www.telechargerunevideo.com/en/
Ok ru has an enormous amount of American and English films avaialble
Torbjorn – I’d like to thank you for informing me of these sites. I’ve been able to use the second site listed to find several of my wanted list films.
Keith,
Welcome to the site, I’m glad you like it 🙂
I have both films, I will upload them here for you.
Best,
Jon.
Thanks for The Conquering Horde. I’m looking forward to Two Gun Lady and my December requests (if you have them.. This site is such a treasure for us older folks to finally see films we’ve searched for with no luck for years.
Hello Jon,
I really enjoy movies from the 40s and 50s and two that I am dying to watch are:
The Looters (1955) starring Rory Calhoun and Ray Danton and Crossroads (1942) starring William Powell and Hedy Lemarr. (Preferred as listed.)
Thanks for your generosity
Gary
I can help you with Crossroads, Gary – https://ok.ru/video/270682491555
Gary,
I will upload more films from the 40s and 50s for you.
“The Looters” is on Youtube, the copy that I have is pretty much the same
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d81f6PZ_I-g

Thanks Jon – anything from those decades are welcomed.
All the best,
Gary
hi jon, requesting “island of lost men” Anna may Wong (1939)
Hi Randy & Ruth.
I have this one, it’s coming!
Best,
Jon.
Hi Jon – an amazing run of films lately. Bertrand Tavernier’s fascinating recent documentary on his journey through French cinema caused me to think more than I had before about Claude Sautet and Edmond T Greville in particular. Re Sautet, most of the work seems to be available here and there but I couldn’t find Les choses de la vie (except in an unsubtitled region 2 DVD).. Wonder if you can help with that…
Hey Jack.
Thank you for the support, I try to upload different kinds of movies to try to please everyone (although I know that such thing is impossible).
I have a subbed copy of “Les choses de la vie” which I will upload for you.
Best,
Jon.

Hi Jon! Do you have LUV with Jack Lemmon, Elaine May, and Peter Falk? Thanks!
You can watch it here, Jimmy, if you like – https://ok.ru/video/539249019616
Thanks, Vlad! This never came up in my searches.
Jon, can I change my request to the 1998 Walter Matthau TV movie The Marriage Fool (aka Love After Death)? Thanks!
Hi Jimmy.
I have “The Marriage Fool” it’s coming!

Hi Rob,
Thanks again, already too many films for me to watch, but would love to see I Even Met Happy Gypsies(Alexander Petrovic, 1967)
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0062277/?ref_=nv_sr_1
If not, Im sure 10 films Ive never heard of and will love will appear in the next couple of weeks,
Cheers
Hey John.
Thanks for the support man, I appreciate it!
I have a subbed copy of “Skupljaci perja” (1967), it’s coming this month.
Best,
Jon.
Thanks again for making so many wonderful obscurities available for viewing. I’ve long wanted to see “The Avengers”(1950) with John Carroll, Adele Mara and Fernando Lamas. Would love to see it turn up some time on your site.
Hi Ken.
I don’t have that one unfortunately but I will add it to the wanted list.
Best,
Jon.
Hi Jon,
Thanks so much for the great site, I love all of the films by great directors which I never would have been able to see otherwise.
I’m not sure what makes something ineligible for being available for sale, I’d love to request Linton Semage’s “The Outcast”:
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0281025/?ref_=nm_knf_i2
There was briefly a Region 1 release years ago, but it’s long been out of print and unavailable, so I don’t know if that disqualifies it. I know that Camp de Thiaroye is on the site and it similarly had an OOP New Yorker release, so I wasn’t sure if this case was comparable.
Thanks so much for all your hard work!
Hi Hiton.
Thank you for the support I appreciate that a lot.
I will upload “The Outcast” for you, stay tuned to the new postings.
Best,
Jon.
Hello Jon,
Firstly, thanks for your invaluable site.
So you managed Renaldo & Clara! Another that has totally eluded me for over 20 years is The Bell Jar, directed by Larry Peerce.
Love from London,
Barton
Hi Barton,
There’s a B&W copy of “The Bell Jar” on Youtube:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oL1lAKA32es
This is the same copy that I have only that in color, the movement as you will probably notice is not very smooth, I don’t think it’s worth posting it here but if you want I’ll post a link here so you can downoad it, Let me know.
Best,
Jon.
Hello Jon,
I’ve only just seen this. Thanks for replying. If you do have a colour version I’d be very interested in seeing it.
With thanks,
Barton
Thank you for uploading my previous request (and the person who donated it to you). I asked if you had Lightnin’ (1930) a few months ago and you said yes. I’m not sure if it’s still in the pipeline or you forgot about it.
Hi Nathan.
I completely forgot, I’m so sorry, I will upload it within the next couple of days.
Best,
Jon.
Sorry this isn’t so much a request but a question to Vlad,
How do you search for movies on ok.ru? I can’t seem to find a way to browse the choices on the site and see what is there. How do you do that?
Hi Rob. First, I assume you have created an OK.RU account. If so, there’s really nothing special I do. I search by video, always in “long duration” and for “the entire time”. Oh, sometimes it helps if you remove the films production date and search by title alone if you aren’t getting results. If that does not work, it might take some digging around. It also helps to find channels that upload movies and subscribe to them.
Hope this helps.
https://ffilms.org
links to many movies from ok.ru.
Your site, Jon, is getting better all the time, surpassing everything I’ve seen before – anywhere! Thanks!
Thanks for SECTION DES DISPARUS. Any chance of finding a better print?
New requests:
LE FAUVE EST LACHE (LABRO, 1959)
SI TOUS LES GARS DU MONDE (CHRISTIAN-JAQUE, 1956)
Hi Dan.
I will upload a slightly better version in the same post where I posted the other one in a few days, make sure to check this link for the update
http://rarefilmm.com/2018/10/section-des-disparus-1956/
I don’t have subtitles for those other two films, sorry.
Best,
Jon.
Thank you, Jon! Much appreciated!
Hi Jon! I am new to the site as I was looking for (and thanks to you, found) “Storia di Piera” with Hanna Schygulla and Isabelle Huppert. That got me thinking about another Isabelle Huppert film that I saw several years ago on cable called “Navodneniye” (1993) (AKA “The Flood” AKA “L’inondation”) directed by Igor Minaiev. I have searched high and low for it and can’t find it anywhere! I would love to watch it again and I think others on here would like it too.
Hi Julia.
Welcome to the site! It always makes me very happy when I can help people reunite with films they’ve been waiting years to see them 🙂
I don’t have that film unfortunately, it seems to be incredibly rare, do you remember which was the channel where you saw it? Are you from Germany by any chance? Maybe we could email the channel if you remember it and they might be able to show it agan sometime (super long shot but still worth asking in my opinion).
Thanks.
Best,
Jon.
Hello John, this is the first time I request anything on any film site, but this place is SUPERB with all it implies.
I would love to see mostly rare TV movies from the 80’s and 70’s I am pretty sure you can find.
Thank you for the good work!

Hi Larisa.
Sorry, I don’t have those two films but I will add them to the wanted list, hopefully they will show up at some point.
Best,
Jon.
Subtitles permitting, do you have either of Justice Is Done (1950) aka Justice est faite or Behind These Walls (1946) Jericho.
Hi Lemmy.
I only have ‘Justice is Done’ with subtitles (1950), it’s coming soon.
Best,
Jon.
Hi, Jon.
Thanks for the feedback. I am very happy that you found “Sarah” (1983). I will wait for the post on the site!
Wow, what a pity! But, do you think that one day you might find a copy of “Antoine et Sébastien”? Anyway, I thank you very much for your effort and your time to search and post these amazing movies!
Thank you and hugs,
Anne.
Hi Anne.
“Sarah” (1983) I’m afraid it’s going to take some more time, I’ve been having troubles getting the copy, but I will upload it eventually, sorry for the delay.
I will try my best to fnd a copy “Antoine et Sebastien”, I’ll let you know when I have it so you can download it.
Best,
Jon
Hi Jon,
So glad you are back! Thanks for all that you do. My request would be for the Nils Malmros film Tree of Knowledge (1981).
Also, do you have any inside info on these two films by Alf Sjöberg? My understanding is that there is video out there in the ether somewhere but they are as of yet unsubtitled in English.
Iris and the Lieutenant (1946)
Only a Mother (1949)
Best,
Chris
Hi Chris.
It’s nice to see you back here after such a long time, I hope you’ve been well my friend.
I will upload “Tree of Knowledge” for you, no problem.
About the Sjöberg films, I will try to find someone to start a translation for “Only a mother”, doesn’t look like there’s anyone doing anything to get them done and I think it’s time. About “Iris and the Lieutenant” I found an article that said that there’s legal pending disputes about this film that’s why it can’t be found anywhere.
Hope to hear again from you soon.
Best,
Jon.

My request:
A Southern Maid (aka Love Wins Again) (1933/1934) with Bebe Daniels
More information on film:
A Southern Maid is a 1933 British musical film directed by Harry Hughes and starring Bebe Daniels, Clifford Mollison and Hal Gordon.[1] It is based on the operetta A Southern Maid by Harold Fraser-Simson. A young Spanish woman marries a lowly Englishman, rather than the aristocrat her father had intended, much to his displeasure. It was part of the cycle of operetta films popular in Britain in the mid-1930s.
Thank you
Hi Mary.
Sorry, I don’t have it but I will add it to my wanted list, maybe someone in the UK can help us, fingers crossed.
Best,
Jon.
Hello, Jon! I’d like to request ‘Uranus (1990)’ starring Gérard Depardieu.
Also, I requested Nobuhiro Suwa’s ‘M/Other (1999)’ a month or so back. Was wondering if that one was still scheduled to be added to the site in the future?
Thanks for everything!!
My bad. It completely slipped my mind that I had already made my monthly request. Sorry. Well, I guess if you can’t find either my 1st request or my alternative request, you can make this my request instead, or just make it my Dec. request.
Cheers!
Hi Lemmy,
It’s all good, don’t worry about it.
I had some problems trying to get “M/Other” (1999)’ that’s why I didn’t upload it, it’s solved now I will upload that one and “Uranus” as well this month, sorry for the delay.
All the best,
Jon.

Hi Jon,
I just recently discovered you and absolutely love what you are doing.
I’m looking for the movie A Diary of Chuji’s Travels (忠次旅日記 Chūji tabi nikki, 1927) for ages now and would be absolutely delighted if you have it.
Greetings from Germany
Oh… I’ve just seen, that it’s on the wanted list.
https://www.reddit.com/r/Lost_Films/comments/3xn8oy/a_diary_of_chujis_travels_1927_ito_daisuke/
I’ve found this on Reddit. I never used Reddit and I don’t know, if the people on it are trustworthy. Maybe you have more balls than I do and order the film from some random guy on the internet.
Kind regards
Hi Henrik.
Thank you very much.
I have probably the same copy that that guy is talking about in that thread on Reddit, it’s tinted and incomplete but I will post it if you want, quality is pretty good for its age, it comes with hardcoded subtitles in English. Let me know.
Best,
Jon.
You know, I would take a 20 minute cut at this point. So if you could do that, I would be very grateful.
Many thanks!
Greetings. Back in the late 1970’s I saw this Brazilian Film in a theater in Mill Valley. The plot was that some evil developer was trying to buy all the real estate in this community to redevelop.The community revolted against this plan. I think boulders were rolled down the hill at cars? After they won the people partied; dancing in the streets. Any excuse, these people partied. After seeing this film, our friends and I would say, Let’s Bahia or party. Does anyone know the name of this masterpiece? or where I can find it with English subtitles?
i enjoy your movies very much thanks for your work.
Thanks for all the work on the site! Have long looked for “Public Deb No. 1” , 1940. Also would like to see “Nine Girls”..Columbia, 1940 with a pretty good cast.

Best,
Jon.
For some reason I’ve retained the memory of a very positive review of a film called, (I think,) “Barnardo of the Mountains”, released sometime mid 1990’s. All I remember is that it was a partisan war drama so I’m guessing could be from Yugoslavia, Greece, Italy, etc.. Haven’t been able to find mention anywhere. Also just to reiterrate a request for “Les noces de papier” (The Paper Wedding) 1989 made for television Canadian film directed by Michel Brault with Genevieve Bujold. Thanks for all the wonderful work. Cheers.
Hi Jon,
I only discovered your site a few days ago when it was shared in one of my Facebook groups. What a wonderful resource for film lovers.
This is a long-shot… I’m trying to track down a film called AFTER MIDNIGHT (1990) starring Saeed Jaffrey, Hayley Mills and Ian Dury.

Hi Rod.
Nobody seems to have any information about this movie so I’m assuing it’s lost, it’s so sad that nobody cared to preserve it.
It’s bad, but luckily it’s not that bad. It seems to be shown in Japan every now and then.
Hello Jon,
Just to say thank you so much for ‘The Paper Wedding.’

A request please for “La Guerre est Finie”, Alain Resnais, 1966. I know it’s out there on DVD but I can only find Region 1 US Import DVD or an import with Spanish subtitles. Any chance? (And not just because it’s got Genevieve Bujold again, in a small role.)

Hi Jon,
Thank you very much for making this website what it is today. I’ve seen so many great films here and my memories are filled with great times watching all the rare classics many years ago.
I do have one request. I’ve been looking everywhere for a Japanese film called “Moeru Aki” or “Glowing Autumn”. It was made in 1979 by the famous Japanese director Masaki Kobayashi. I’d very much like to see this film and would be the happiest person if you could find it and upload it.
Thanks again,
Noah
Hello Jon, I sincerely thank you for this wonderful resource of a website. It’s absolutely great!
My primary request would be for “L’amour Fou” (1969) by Jacques Rivette. For the life of me I cannot find it to watch anywhere. Secondly, “Class Relations” or “Klassenverhältnisse” (1984) by Straub/Huillet would be my back-up of choice.
Thanks so much, and all the best.
Hi, Jon.
Really? But thanks for the feedback! I am patient and will wait for the post of “Sarah”. Thanks also for the effort in trying to look for another movie. I know it takes time and energy. In the future I’ll ask for another movie.
Thank you and I also wish you a Merry Christmas and a great New Year with these excellent films,
Hugs,
Anne.

Thank you for the support, Merry Christmas to you as well and happy new year 🙂

Since I’ve had so much help previously with finding assistance here on my rare films searches (thanks Vlad) I thought I would ask about a couple of 1950s B westerns.

It’s not great, but if there is a better copy out there, Jon’s the man to find it.
Any chance of finding any of these composer biopics?

Hi Keith reply 11 Dec
Glad you have had some help of these links but I have come upon a new way of recording ok ru videos which seems to work always. If you use Firefox and has Videodownloader as an add on it will never work or download if you play ok ru videos directly.However if you put the letter m. in front of the web address as an example (https://ok.ru/video/1250315930254 just put m. in front https://m.ok.ru/video/1250315930254 and then click enter a new page upons up with the video and then if you click on the video the videodownloader will work and download normally. I have no idea why this work but found this tip somewhere in cyberspace
Thanks Torbjorn. .I’ve gad great success finding several films on my small want list using the previous links. If I can turn up copies of several more films I will have finished all the films I am currently searching for. With the help from you and Vlad I am getting very close. now.
Hi TORBJORN
since there already is a download option on ok.ru itself, you don’t need to use video downloader.
Hi Martin
In fact I am not registered with ok ru at all just watching and downloading.Perhaps when you are registered and logged in you might have an option of a downloading button but I can’t see any.
Vlad, what a lovely Xmas pressie! You are a gentleman, sir.
How did I miss that?
Seasons greetings and thank you very much indeed.
You’re welcome, Tom.
Oh, and to answer your question, the video is unlisted, so it would not have appeared on a standard search, so you didn’t miss it. All the films on her channel are unlisted.
Happy Holidays.
May I please request
A Brand New Life (TV movie) 1973
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0069821/

Up From The Beach (1965)
I have never found an official release of this movie. It may be owned by Turner Classic Movies. I am not sure but it is on their website but not available. There are people who have done DVD-R, but I’m sure it’s not an official release and they say the quality is poor.
The movie takes place the day after the movie The Longest Day. This was the follow-up movie. With some of the same actors.
Jon—Hello. Would you have “To Live in Peace” (Luigi Zampa, 1947)—an Italian neorealist film that won that year’s New York Film Critics foreign film award (over “Shoeshine”)? Thanks and happy new year. Nick
Would like to request
Nightmare (1974)
https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0071911/?ref_=m_nmfmd_act_99
Face of fear (1990)

Hello, I would like to request Donna Deitch’s 1994 film Criminal Passion. Thanks!
Hello there!

Any luck with Zig Zig?
Hi,
Is it possible to request Bresson’s Diary of a Country Priest? It’s not streaming anywhere and the Criterion DVD is out of print and hugely expensive. Thanks!
https://ok.ru/video/542453729913 this is the only French original language found but unfortunately there are Turkish subtitles on the English hard sub. BTW the best search engine for videos on ok ru is in fact the English version of Yandex instead of Google. You Tube is owned by Google and it is not surprising that ok ru which is a serious competitor for the best classical film site is not showing up when you use the Google search engine for ok ru videos.
Thank you so much!
Hi There,
I’m having a lot of trouble finding a film called Desperate (1947) to complete my Noir collection. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Right here, Nigel – https://ok.ru/video/795734837902
Hi! I am looking for the 1990 TV movie THANKSGIVING DAY starring Mary Tyler Moore. Any chance you might have access to that? Thank you!
Hi there. Do you happen to have the complete uncut version of The Owl and the Pussycat and the pre-code film Two Alone?
Is this the Two Alone you are referring to? https://ok.ru/video/1564494006928
Hi John. Great site, even better movies. I’ve tried for a long time to finally get The Man Who Understood Women 1959 starring Henry Fonda and Leslie Caron but no luck. Hoping you can pull off a post Xmas miracle post it. Thanks for all the hard work and love you put into this site.
Hi! To start off the New Year, might I request Michael Curtiz’s film Der Goldene Schmetterling (aka The Golden Butterfly or The Road to Happiness) starring Nils Asther with English title cards or subs? If that one isn’t possible, I’d like to request Stepping Out starring Liza Minnelli from 1991. Thanks again for all the stupendous films you’ve shared with us and for all your hard work and dedication. May your New Year bring you all the fun and joy you share!
Here’s Stepping Out (1991), :Gabrielle – https://ok.ru/video/199448660546
Don’t know if there’s a better copy floating around.
Thanks! I searched for it myself and couldn’t find it. I am impressed by your skills!
So, since my back-up choice has been found by Vlad, how about my new back-up choice being Zuckerbaby starring Marianne Sagebrecht with English subs?
Hi Gabrielle. Zuckerbaby (1985) is on YT w/ eng subs, but it is cut up into 7 parts. If that’s suitable, here’s part 1 – https://youtu.be/GLunqAVXkSI
If you’d prefer the film undivided, just let Jon know.
I know about the 7 parts, but I was hoping for it undivided. Thanks, though!
