Shocked Zab, I literally don't know where to begin!  You have unearthed a treasure trove here!  Practically every one you have listed are movies I want desperately to see, many for the first time in YEARS.

I take special note of 'The Enchanted Forest' a movie I have not seen in over 50 years - I feared it was another 'lost' film.

Thanks heaps!!  TCM must be launching BL month. Smiley Smiley

I've seen all of those movies and I'd recommended every single one of them. Fantastic selection.

You have good taste, YA  Smiley

The Enchanted Forest is on my tape list for this month as well. Although it's supposedly been released on VHS, I've never seen it anywhere near me, maybe it's out of print. I'm also going to make sure I see Valley of Decision as it's not out on video and I am a huge Dean Stockwell fan.

Right.  I see the movie is not lost but having a hard time finding it's way. Tongue  Amazon US lists both VHS and DVD 'out of stock.'  And Amazon Canada says this:
This title will be released on December 31, 2010. You may order it now and we will ship it to you when it arrives.

Okay, just notify my estate.  Grin

Wow.   Grin

I've seen a few of these, but many are ones that I've only hoped to see someday.  I've already put a sticky note on my computer for Her Twelve Men, with both Rex Thompson and Tim Considine, as well as others!  I suppose I'll just have to print out this entire schedule and tape it to my tv screen, so I can't even watch anything else without checking it first.  Smiley

Thanks, Zab!

Love,
Sir J
