I don't know of any Alex. Durbin makes a brief appearance singing with Judy Garland in 'That's Entertainment', which is available on super 8mm. But I think thats about it.

Phil Sheard of Classic Home Cinema has issued on Super 8 the MGM film "Every Sunday", a 1936 ten minute musical short starring Deanna Durbin and Judy Garland.

Alex,I can confirm that there was no Durbin movies released at any time on super8mm.In fact Susan Turner was quoted as saying
who's D.Durbin?.She was in charged of Universal 8 at that time.Andy.

Alex

If you have 16mm or Standard (Regular) 8 projectors look out for Castle single reeler MA48 "GEMS OF SONG".

This stars Deanna Durbin and is an excerpt from Universal's 1940 "It's A Date".

The 16mm release was available new between 1949 and 1959. United Kingdom GB Movie-Paks also distributed the 16mm copy.
The Standard (Regular) 8 was available new between 1960 and 1962, I am not sure if Movie-Paks released it on 8mm.
