Many of those are available on region one or no region DVDs in the US, like I have both The Jackals and Union Pacific on such discs. Some not on DVD are on VHS tape or Laserdisc.

You'd need a all-region DVD player or one that can be hacked to be all -region, etc.

Every modern TV set in the US typically can convert PAL signal to be viewed on the set anyway. Can the UK TV sets also do that?

I'm also in the UK.

Even though your DVD player may be Region 2 "only". You can sometimes hack them, by entering in a code with the DVD remote. If you google your make and model of DVD player and maybe the phrase "all region hack/code", it might come up with a code for you to enter. That's what I did years ago; of course, it's caused me to spend a lot of money on import DVDs.

Another thing I would suggest, is that maybe you can find the movies listed on youtube.

I'm keen for a copy of 'Stars in My Crown' (along with some of the other McCrea ones you've listed; but even on region 1 'Stars in My Crown' is quite pricey. I do have Union Pacific though, which is part of Region 1 De Mille Boxset, which can be found here:
