Question
My brother an I saw a movie in the late 70`s or early 80`s called "Welcomeback red rider" It was a drama starring Hal Linden(BarnyMiller)Marjorie Corntney, and Lee Grant....We thought it was a great movie and never saw or heard about it again.It was made in California.We`ve been searching for this movie ever since.No ones EVER heard of this movie when we talk aboutit.If I could get my hands on this movie he would flip out!..........Any hope?

Answer
Thanks for writing.  It's actually called "When You Comin' Back, Red Ryder?" (1979).  It was never officially released on VHS or DVD, and is very hard to find, but I can get you a DVD dub if you are interested!
