Will we ever see these Brando films on DVD?
I would love to own an official dvd of ONE-EYED JACKS. Those PD versions are horrible. THE APPALOOSA was released on VHS years ago. Any chance of seeing these westerns on DVD some day??? This is my first post on this forum. I have enjoyed reading it for over a year now. This is the most informative forum I have seen. Keep up the good work. Barry.

While I'd like to see a better release of One-Eyed Jacks, the one Brando movie I really want to get a DVD release is
MISSOURI BREAKS, with Brando & Jack Nicholson.

I'm still waiting for "Reflections In A Golden Eye" directed by John Huston and co-starring Brian Keith and Elizabeth Taylor. Sick enough to make David Lynch blush!

It is widely known that Brando did not like DVD and the direction it is going in. He protested the release of the Godfather on DVD and was paid a huge sum for it coming to DVD. He was always going against the grain so to speak. I doubt we will ever see these movies on DVD.

It would be great to see the desaturated "golden" version of Reflections in a Golden Eye that played at a few venues when first released. Apparently, the movie appeared as a golden sepia tone with red as the only other color showing up. This was another color experiment from John Huston, following Moulin Rouge and Moby Dick. For whatever reason the studio (WB I believe) pulled the sepia prints and released the movie in conventional color prints (the sepia tinting had been done at the print stage, not the negative stage).
What are the chances that a DVD will be released with both versions? The conventional color is what just about everyone has seen in theaters and on TV and video for years (and the only one I have seen), so it should be released as well. Oh well, maybe in time for HD.
Also another vote for Burn!, which I thought was terrific, even though the only version I have seen was chopped up to fit in a two hour time slot and viewed on a snowy UHF station years ago.
