I have been looking for this video for years and years and years. I only saw it once on network television as it is a made-for-TV movie. There was always something about this movie that I couldn't get out of my head. I, too, wanted to see it again. In fact I purchased a movie script many years ago. It is available for sale as well. I have posted many places asking if they had it available. Once someone told me that he had a 16 mm version, but I didn't have a projector. The owner had some health problems and was unable to convert it. This comment section is going to be quite lengthly as the comment section must be ten lines of information before it can be posted. I have been told it is in the public domain and available for purchase. Anyway, to make a long story short, I have a very good quality of this movie on VHS. If you are interested in seeing it again and owning it, feel free to contact me. I would be willing to sell the video and movie script to you and you can view it as many times as your heart desires. My log in is same on ebay. Contact me there.

I too have been looking for a copy of this movie but I am not sure whether it was ever released onto sell-able media. I saw this movie when I was a kid and have never forgotten it. It lingers in my memory like something I wish I could remember more about. Anyone with knowledge of how to obtain a copy - thank you in advance for your help. I remember how odd it was that the girl could drive.I also remember that Lee Grant was taken with this odd character who owned the diner with the neon ceiling but that he was some what of an leery character, but I don't seem to remember much more beyond that, except that the Denise Nicholsen also played the gum-chewing Violet in the movie "Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory".

I was very young when I seen this movie. For years I could not remember the name of the movie. I would talk to my late husband about it and he said he had never heard of it.(this was surprising because he had seen just about every movie made from the 30's to the 90's and the fact that his father was a projectionist in Redondo Beach, Calif). I will never forget two parts of the movie; when Jones would turn on the 'Neon Ceiling' and when he taught the daughter to drive & she dressed up and left to go back to her father. I think this movie is what made me like neon fixtures so much. Great movie, great story line, great actors, just all around great movie. If only they would make movies like this now.

This movie has many darkly lit scenes despite the title. Herb Edelman truly proves he can act in this tour-de-force drama of a bored housewife seeking adventure. Lee Grant is excellent also, but the stand-out is Denise Nickerson, who showed quite an acting range.
