 Mr. S. Barlow says:
I want all of Sandy Dennis's films, along with all the films, uncut, that were on the original DPP Banned list from the early 80's (see the book "See No Evil" by David Kerekes - fab read!).

The 1928 film "The Passion of Joan of Arc" by Carl Dreyer has never been relesed on DVD or video in the UK (though has elsewhere). For anybody who has a serious interest in films, this must be regarded as the most important film ever made which is not available. Falconetti as Joan of Arc gives what some regard as the greatest acting performance ever.

 Mr. A. Peacock says:
agreed with Joan of Arc hoping MoC or the Bfi will get round to it soon.
i'd also add (including ones not released over here but can be found elsewhere):
City of Sadness
Greed
Farewell my Concubine
Goodbye Dragon Inn
Story of the Late Chrysthanemums
Mondo Cane
I Only Want You To Love Me
Flaming Creatures and Normal Love
Hold Me While I'm Naked
Hunchback of Notre Dame (Laughton)
Color of Pomegranates
etc etc etc!!!!

Murder by Contract (1958), starring Vince Edwards - excellent, tight noir about a contract killer, made in seven days, way better than its budget would lead you to imagine.

I'd add Jacques Tati's 'Traffic'. I think that all of his other movies are currently available, but for some reason 'Traffic' isn't. Unless someone knows differently.
