best movie i've ever seen.

Best movie ever!

A waste of 90 minutes of my life

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

I have been looking for this video for years and years and years. I only saw it once on network television as it is a made-for-TV movie. There was always something about this movie that I couldn't get out of my head. I, too, wanted to see it again. In fact I purchased a movie script many years ago. It is available for sale as well. I have posted many places asking if they had it available. Once someone told me that he had a 16 mm version, but I didn't have a projector. The owner had some health problems and was unable to convert it. This comment section is going to be quite lengthly as the comment section must be ten lines of information before it can be posted. I have been told it is in the public domain and available for purchase. Anyway, to make a long story short, I have a very good quality of this movie on VHS. If you are interested in seeing it again and owning it, feel free to contact me. I would be willing to sell the video and movie script to you and you can view it as many times as your heart desires. My log in is same on ebay. Contact me there.

I saw the movie in 1971, I suppose, on TV and never forgot it. I would very much like to have a copy of it. Can one be purchased from any source anyone knows?Never play cards with a man named pops and never eat in a café called mom's or words to that effect, so you see, even though I am now 71, I remember part of the movie quite well after 30+ years. I remember the driving scene when the girl was learning and the incredible private show that Gig Young's character had arranged for himself and which he did not really care to share with others. It was an unlikely love story that had to end as it did.

I was very young when I seen this movie. For years I could not remember the name of the movie. I would talk to my late husband about it and he said he had never heard of it.(this was surprising because he had seen just about every movie made from the 30's to the 90's and the fact that his father was a projectionist in Redondo Beach, Calif). I will never forget two parts of the movie; when Jones would turn on the 'Neon Ceiling' and when he taught the daughter to drive & she dressed up and left to go back to her father. I think this movie is what made me like neon fixtures so much. Great movie, great story line, great actors, just all around great movie. If only they would make movies like this now.

I've been trying to find a video or even a review of this film for years. I recall what a deep impression it made on me when I first saw it. Definitely Gig Young's best part. Lee Grant was excellent,as usual & the story had an almost European bittersweet flavor to it. But best of all was that ceiling. Not long after I had accumulated a couple of dozen antique neon signs & constructed my own neon ceiling. Those were the days...
