Good Movie - But Never Shown

I was lucky some years back (probably about 10 years) to catch a copy of this movie on TV. It was a bit chopped up, but still I enjoyed it wholeheartedly. Unfortunately as I far as I know, it never shows up on TV these days. Is it the sensitive subject matter? - Like there aren't worse subject matters out there that movies have been made about and yet these movies have been shown continuously.

What a censorship shame, if that is the case and really not fair.

Sorry to reply to you so long after your original post, but if you are interested at all, you can probably pick the DVD up really cheap at your local Best Buy as part of a 2 pack with some other Rom-Com (I think mine came with Pretty Woman). Tho to get it by itself, you might only have to shell out about $6 at Best Buy or Walmart. It's usually in the discount bin somewhere. What I went thru to get the soundtrack was another matter. lol

If you have Adelphia On Demand, this movie is the Flix Critic's Pick this month. Catch it while you can! :)

More than good, it's a great movie! It's mystifying as to why Hallmark Channel has not added this to their movie library for regular showings: very little would need to be censored and the premise and performances still hold up very well today.

It's unavailable on every streaming service, and can't be rented or bought anywhere (Prime, YouTube etc) either.

It's currently free (with ads) on YouTube. YouTube's free with ads movies are only in SD resolution, but hey, it's free as long as you use an ad blocker.

That's a great point. A surprising numberf of movies are available on YT and similar places.
