I've always wanted to see OH DAD, POOR DAD...., this very elusive film which was a major bomb critically and at the box office. Given the play was a huge success and highly lauded, one wonders what went wrong or if the story was just too outre for moviegoers and many critics at the time.

I treasure my old VHS copy of this film, which is definitley way out there but I love it. Rosalind Russell gave one hell of a performance. I hope someday it will get a proper DVD/BluRay release.
