October 16, 2007 - FINALLY someone woke up and released this incredible masterpiece on DVD. It goes on sale today.
Other comments have acknowledged what a fine film this is. Truly it's an experience. It not only depicts memories, is realistic and well done, but for anyone old enough to remember the time period, it's like traveling back to one's own childhood.
It's a sheer joy to see Mildred Natwick work her magic, but all of the cast is excellent. Do they have awards for casting directors? Whoever pulled this one off deserves one. The production values are impeccable, the locations and settings are flawless.
Now that this is out on DVD, maybe someone else will wake up and release "Stubby Pringle's Christmas" as well.
