I may be wrong, but I believe that Elstree Calling is the only surviving film (partly) directed by Hitchcock that has yet to have a DVD release. UK label Network are finally releasing it on region 2 DVD at the end of April.

Good news. It is far from being a great film but some aspects of it deserve a second look, and certainly from the perspective of a historical look at British variety it is valuable. Not to mention the Hitchcock connection.

THE FIGHTING GENERATION still isn't on DVD as far as I know, but that's a short, of course.

Waltzes From Vienna can be hard to track down in an official form, but it did come out on DVD in Europe (there are also North American bootlegs, but why bother?). There's a French version titled Le Chant du Danube that is packaged like the titles in Universal's Alfred Hitchcock Collection, and I think it also came out under the title Strauss's Great Waltz (maybe the German version).
