Old VHS copies of "Home for the Holidays" are usually available on Amazon for under $15 - but if you check Ebay, they tend to be $30-$50.
Another classic TV movie that should be produced on dvd.

Trying to find Home for the Holidays...4 sisters come home to be with their dad, one is his killer. Sally Field and Elenor Parker are among the cast.

Also looking for The Smith Family, starring Henry Fonda.

I've been looking everywhere for Summer of my German Soldier, and Lisa Bright and Dark. They are nowhere to be found sadly.

I TOTALLY AGREE that the heyday for the made for TV movie was in the 60's and 70's. Although an occasional one shows up on regular TV (such as "V"). the majority and best end up on HBO or Showtime. Others for HONORABLE MENTION include "Celebrity", "The Glass House", "My Sweet Charlie", "King", "Carter's Army", "The Blue Knight", "Seventh Avenue", "The Dane Curse" and many others I can't think of at this moment. And it WOULD be a great idea to have a channel that only featured old made for TV films. Many of these movies were time capsules within themselves and reflected America and its ideals within the 60's and 70's. Its also a kick to see how later superstars got their starts and older greats give a last hurrah and show that they "still got it".

I would love to see "Seven in Darkness" again, as well as the one--can't recall the title--based on the Kitty Genovese killing (the infamous sixties assault-murder of a young woman whose neighbors heard her screams but did nothing to help her). Also "How Awful About Allan", and "Five Desperate Women"... and I vaguely remember "Crowhaven Farm" coming on but not bothering to watch! (I was 13; some programming went right past me in those years). @ Linda: I think you're thinking of "A Light in the Piazza" starring Yvette Mimieux, George Hamilton and Olivia de Havilland as the over-protective mother, but I'm pretty sure this was a feature film, not a made-for-tv movie, unless there was a tv remake. Oh--and does anyone remember the scary "Love, Hate, Love" starring Ryan O'Neal, Leslie Ann Warren and Peter Haskell? I think it came out the same year as Eastwood's "Play Misty For Me" with a similar theme of unhinged, obsessive love. Creeped me out plenty, I'll tell ya.

I am trying to find a movie, possibly '50-60's about a retarded girl who met a boy. I think it was in Italy. I thought it had Piazza in the title or Palazoo.

A few of my "oldies but goodies" TV favorites, of which I've never been able to find legitimate releases, and which never seem to even pop up anywhere on cable anymore...

In no particular order:

Summer Of My German Soldier (with the always-awesome Bruce Davison)

The Gathering / The Gathering Part II (Ed Asner in the first; Bruce Davison in both)

This House Possessed (schlocky, but creepy fun nonetheless)

The Strange And Deadly Occurrence (that dressmakers dummy totally creeped me out!)

Rich Men, Single Women (better than the title would suggest)

Massacre At Central High ('Heathers' possibly owes a bit of a nod to this one)

Something For Joey (one of the all-time tearjerkers)

Dark Night Of The Scarecrow (very effectively creepy)

And the John Jakes miniseries: The Bastard / The Rebels / The Seekers (which I do have on VHS but would love to see become available on DVD)

Ah...so many more over the years, but this is the instant "top of my head" list... (All on permanent TiVo Wish List, of course! One can always hope!)
