Michael-

Derann had put this on a film list as a "future release" in the mid-90's. I believe they later cancelled the release, possibly due to problems finding a suitable negative. I'm not sure if any prints were ever printed before the project was abandoned.

BTW-
I just watched this movie for the first time two weeks ago (from the Bette Davis DVD boxed set). I must say, it is now my favorite Davis movie, and possibly my favorite movie from that era. From production quality, to the acting, just a great movie!

Nick.

Thanks for the info guys. Oh well, I'll have to be content with the DVD version! [Smile]

Are you really sure it was never released? I have a 1990 Derann catalogue that lists "Now Voyager" to be available on 4x600ft spools, order number F1590. Isn't anybody of the Derann boys on the forum who can confirm???
At least a trailer of "Now Voyager" was available on Super 8 from Canterbury Films...

Duncan was our guy on the forum. Alas he is no longer with Derann.

I will contact Derann and see if I can get one of the other guys interested in joining up.
