Default Two Jenny Agutter film questions.
This one has probably been asked and answered before, but is there any reason that The Snow Goose has remained unavailable for so long?

Also has Andrzej Wajda's Gates of Paradise every had a release: legal or grey market?

It is certainly quite an obscure one.

Just what is this fascination with Jenny Agutter? Average acting ability, average looks, average, average, average.

Yes - Paul Gallico specified that it should not be shown again or released. His estate now no longer have any concerns over its release but who holds the rights is hard to ascertain.

No - you will not find it. Only one copy has been tracked down and that is not available for viewing.

She obviously appeals to those of us who prefer real women.

"Have you ever been severely beaten about the face and neck."

Only joking, that's a quotation from one of Ms Agutter's films.

It's not like there are just a few of us who like JA, there's millions.

If Jenny's like the average woman you know, then you're doing well

I agree wholeheartedly. I will probably be jumped on for this one but "The railway children" drives me up the wall. Oh Oh........

A shame on both counts. I had an idea that The Snow Goose was unavailable due to Gallico, but nice to have it confirmed. Sad about the other one, it really intrigues me. One can but hope.
Thanks Fell

On one of the other threads - "The Railway Children", a number of contributors waxed lyrical about how wonderful she was in the scene where her father appears through the smoke on the station. But, you don't build an acting career on one line in one scene of a film. Her performance in "The Eagle Has Landed" was excrutiating and I can't think of any other role in which she was even adequate.

She wasn't bad in Nic Roeg's "Walkabout" imo.
