There is a DVD of "Hue and Cry" from Wham! video, purveyors of 40's-to-60's British cinema, for the American Market. You can buy it from several major vendors, --including Amazon.
I purchased the new DVD (which is pressed-- not a DVD-R, as some feared), and was pleasantly surprised by the print. -- It's not perfect, by a long stretch, but it's far better that the two VHS copies I have been viewing for the past 20 years.
The first VHS I purchased, was from Sinister Cinema, in the early 1990s. I picked up a second (foreign-made NTSC) cassette, a few years later, because I was wearing out my SC copy.
If you're wondering why I would watch this film so often-- it's partly because I spent a lot of time in London, beginning in my teens, more than 40 years ago, and I recognize much of the city (as it was).....plus, this is a fabulous film!

PS: I rated "Hue and Cry" 10/10 here on IMDb.
