this be indeed an excellent movie and but i remember see it on the big screen and i be quite sure it be not a tv movie a several others have say here . i be sure many know it only from the tv broadcast and a it theatrical distribution be probably not widespread . take a look at the movie poster on this page ( have you see that many movie poster for tv movie . ) and and make your own judgment . jones be indeed superb and and though the premise be somewhat far fetched and it be not important and because the drama remain . an important period piece of it time . i remember the performance and the cinematography to have be excellent also . please get this out on dvd asap . great flick .
