Perché no?

Good news: finally I found a video tape with a TV-recording of a broadcast by arte (1998) in the library of the UdK, Berlin. Bad news: the quality is verrry pooor.

This is one of my very favorite films and unforgettable to me. I tend to like movies about unusual lifestyles that work well and pose the question(to me): "Why should we be stuck with the 'nuclear family' model as the ideal?" It expands the limits. The movie flowed, it was sweet, the characters were engaging and the story engrossing. This movie has a French or European sensibility and I doubt that it would have been made in America and certainly not in the year of its release 1977. I would love to own it. Other movies of a similar nature were "Jules et Jim" & "Dona Herlinda & Her Son"(Mexican). Any info on how to obtain a VHS or DVD would be greatly appreciated.

I WROTE THE ABOVE IN OCT 2005 I AM WRITING AGAIN IN DEC 2007 TO ASK IF ANYONE KNOWS HOW I CAN SEE THIS FILM AGAIN. WHERE DID SOME OF THE OTHER COMMENTORS SEE IT.

Will it be able, to see this film again. Does anybody know, where there might be a copy or a digital release or something? I remember, the Film impressed me very much, when i saw it in the late seventy's, it even gave a new direction to my ethics, if i can say so with my medium bad English and i would very much like to see it again for i.e. just control, if i was correctly impressed that time. It seemed like a revolution, the promise of the possibility of love to more than one with the solution for so many not loved people, that are not loved because love is so restricted. Also maybe the way out of the 68 free love dilemma, cause this way love stays still romantic.

I've seldom been so mad that I wasn't in Cleveland.

I'll never forget the night I went to the theater to watch it, once it was released in this country back in the late 1970's. I was living in a small community and remember that I felt like wearing a wig and dark sunglasses, in case I should meet somebody I knew. Well I didn't. I went with great anticipation that was met fully. It opened my eyes and prepared my mind to what a wonderful life that lay ahead of me. I was not to be disappointed. The movie is wonderful. My wish for the future is that it will run in the theaters again, as it has a story and a message to tell to people today, as it will have in the future. My wish is also that it will be released on DVD - soon.
