Here is something that has always interested me. I never saw it when it was broadcast as a TV movie in the 1980'. Has anyone found it available?

I saw this when it first aired. Don't remember much about it. I was a kid. I know it was shown on the Starz Romance channel several years ago, but I missed much of the broadcast. Haven't had any of the Stars channel's in about a decade. I would like to see this myself. Pretty rare production.

"Moviola" episodes surface regularly on the Free to Air channels "True Movies" in this part of the world. This one has certainly run, but my only memory is that it was pretty tedious.

The episode concerning the "search" for Scarlett O'Hara seems to play more often and it has more pizazz.
( Incidentally both the Daily Telegraph and the Guardian ran obits for Ann Rutherford yesterday.)
