Boom! is considered one of the worst movies ever made! It destroyed the momentum Liz and Dick had built from Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf and tagged them the camp duo of the 60's. As for Night of the Iguana, that's also a lesser Williams work. The biggies have always been Streetcar, The Glass Menagerie, and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Not only were they all made into classic big screen films, with truly unforgettable performances (think Brando), they've be remade again and again. I don't think Boom! has been remade. And neither has Night of the Iguana.
Maybe that's why you're not seeing them on DVD, as of yet. But rest assured, they'll show up. There are literally thousands of movies not yet released to dvd. House of DS and Night of DS, for two. Bette Davis and Joan Crawford, two major actresses, are poorly represented on DVD. Here's just a short list of films that have yet to be released:
(1) The Nanny (Davis)
(2) All This and Heaven Too (Davis)
(3) Cinderella (Disney)
(4) Song of the South (Disney)
(5) Possessed (Crawford)
(6) I'll Cry Tomorrow (Susan Hayward)
(7) Laura
(8 ) Berserk (Crawford)
(9) The Uninvited (Ray Milland)
(10) The Heiress (Olivia deHavilland)
(11) Letter From an Unknown Woman (Joan Fontaine)
(12) Jane Eyre (Fontaine)
(13) The Innocents (Deborah Kerr)
(14) Equus (Burton)
(15) Johnny Guitar (Joan Crawford)
(16) Mr. Skeffington (Davis)
(17) To Each his Own (deHavilland)
(18) many, many Doris Day films
(19) Hush, Hush, Sweet Charlotte (Davis)
(20) The Anniversary (Davis)
The list goes on and on. It seems that most films from 1980 on up are on DVD. The older, classic films have slowly but surely been released. Before Night of the Iguana, I want the two DS movies on DVD!
