[greencine.com](http://greencine.com) had a 1933 \*Cavalcade \* available yesterday for rent, perhaps for sale. ---

> [@Gordon\_Urquhart](#): > > It’s kind of sad that a movie that won the 1932/33 Academy Award for Best Picture can’t be seen – I saw it perhaps five or six years ago, but I’m almost certain that it was obtained through the Denver library and equally almost certain that it was on VHS. > > (Ranked among Best Picture winners, \*Cavalcade \*wasn’t all that great – but it should be able to be seen, nonetheless.) There’s an Oscar winning movie that was “lost” within 10 years of its 1928 release. Less than 5 minutes of footage is known to exist of a film called “The Way Of All Flesh”, one of the movies deleted from my list (in the unlikely event that it ever becomes available). Most of the movies on my “deleted” list were in my “Saved” queue for as long as I’ve been on Netflix. Interestingly, this included a few that had previous had a streaming option; that’s gone too. ---

Weird, Calvalcade is available on blu ray. The blu ray set includes a DVD copy, but there is no stand alone DVD copy. > **[Amazon.com: Cavalcade 80th Anniversary Edition Blu-Ray + DVD Combo : Diana...](https://www.amazon.com/Cavalcade-80th-Anniversary-Blu-Ray-Combo/dp/B00D3K357O)** > > Amazon.com: Cavalcade 80th Anniversary Edition Blu-Ray + DVD Combo : Diana Wynyard, Clive Brook, Una O'Connor, Herbert Mundin, Beryl Mercer, Tempe Pigott, Ursula Jeans, Desmond Roberts, Dick Henderson Jr., Tom Ricketts, Pat Somerset, Douglas Walton,... ---

_Cavalcade_ also deserves the award for “Most misspellings in this thread” 🙂 ---

> [@Quimby](#): > > I believe Looking for Mister Goodbar was never made available on DVD or if it was it is long long out of print. There is some kind of rights issue no one feels motivated to resolve. There is a Looking For Mr. Goodbar DVD selling on Ebay right now. No bids. ---

IIRC I had 3 movies. Not sure how to bring it up again. _The Escapist_ was also one of them (the 2008 film not 2004 or 1983). Also Crispin Glover’s _What Is It?_ for the lulz. > [@iamthewalrus\_3](#): > > _Cavalcade_ also deserves the award for “Most misspellings in this thread” 🙂 Lighten up, no need to call the Calvary! ---

I lost these: Convention The Century of the Self To Want to Fly Americana Cat Ladies I hope this isn’t going to be a trend. I like some pretty obscure things. ---

> [@XaMcQ](#): > > I hope this isn’t going to be a trend. I like some pretty obscure things. I got a little annoyed, but then realized that telling us they didn’t plan to have it is better than the old Unknown wait time trick. Although I have gotten a few of those, including the first disc to a TV series where they apparently had the later discs in abundance(?) I do wish they moved them to a third list that they’ll never send just so that we can remember to stop looking for it. ---

I saw Almanya at Filmfest DC 2012. Put it on my Netflix list right afterwards - but recently it vanished. I guess the owner has decided to never make it available on US DVD., ☹ ---

You do know Netflix is also adding some new titles? Here is one discussion: [The Best Movies and TV Shows Coming to Netflix in January](http://www.slate.com/blogs/browbeat/2014/12/29/new_on_netflix_jan_2015_the_best_new_titles_to_stream_including_mean_girls.html). I think I have seen five more. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/netflix-movies-in-my-queue-no-longer-offered/706123.md?page=1)
