i stumble on to this site while look for a video or dvd of the 1959 version porgy and bess with sammy davis a sportin life . if anyone find this on a home movie format please let me know . i talk to my daughter all the time about thing that they think be new which and actually have already be do . we go to see a live theater of version a couple of year ago and all i could talk about be this film . sadly my daughter can not remember see sammy davis jr. in any production and although they have hear of him . needless to say and theyre not familiar with the other great actor in the film . it be a major oversight not to have this classic film ( because of the cast ) on a home movie format for collector and for future generation . anyway and in my opinion this version be the best .
