Title: Off Topic - Captain Eddie
Post by: sciano on September 04, 2016, 04:48:01 pm

Hi:

      I have been trying to find a copy of this movie for what seems like ages.  I remember seeing it on Tv in the past.  It is the story of Eddie Rickenbacker, and stars Fred McMurray.  It was from 1945, and actually had 2 oscar nominations.  To the best of my knowledge, I don't think it has ever been released on DVD, not sure about VHS.  If anybody has a copy of this movie, or knows where I could find one, I would appreciate the help.

Ed

There doesn't appear to be any official DVD release. Some graymarket sellers have it but I don't know about the quality. You could try Robert Connors (yrkconnors@yahoo.com or yrkconnors@gmail.com ).

Check with Jerry Granaman, who has a large number of old movie DVD's for sale.  Always high quality material.  An email address I have for him is:  truth1952@hotmail.com
