This film, now some 30 years old, is timeless. It is an understatement to say that it needs to be released in DVD format. The movie preceded all the more recent interest in the white lions, and I think that it would be well received today.
Animal conservation, family relationships, endangered animals - all relevant issues today... the director was years ahead of his time in telling this story.
I watched it over and over on HBO, and may have even recorded it from there at one time. It has long been missing if I did so. It would be added to my DVD collection if it were released, and I would probably buy more than one copy so that I could give it to my grandsons and great-great nieces and nephew as well.
