Why has this not been released in DVD format. I absolutely hate the fact that a terrific movie such as this will go unnoticed, to a whole new generation of movie goers. This movie allows Michael Caine to flex his acting chops, and portray the futilistic, down on love writer, who has given up on life and love. Then along comes Sally Field ... I LOVE her in this flick. She portrays such endearing qualities, and yet maintains an innocence that comes across on screen ... no other actress could have pulled this off. The chemistry between the two, while superficially not obvious, is the magic element that makes this movie such a treasure.

this is another good movie that will never be a dvd. some of the things in it i think are true.

This is such a great flic... why has it not been released on DVD is beyond me. Michael Caine does such a great job and he and Sally seem so real. Love Love Love this film. I keep going back in every few months and checking... someone has to get their head out of the sand and make this happen!

The fact that Michael Cane and Sally Field are in this movie already raises your expectations that the movie is enjoyable. It doesn't dissapoint. "Surrender" is delightful, with a different slant on the usual romantic comedy. It's a movie you can watch again and again and love it just as much the third time.

I agree with other reviewers that this movie needs to be released in a DVD format. It's a very good movie, one that I enjoyed on VHS but look forward to a much better picture, sound, and other features that DVD provides. Is there somewhere where that emails can be sent requesting "Surrender" be released on DVD?
Thank you.

Steel Magnolias was the first one that I saw among Sally Field's movies, and I tend to backtrack her from there. It was interesting to see totally different her in Surrender, but her fundemental characters and actings are still there. One night, I turned on TV and I saw her. Since I rarely watch TV, I could have turned off after a moment if I hadn't seen her. And I kept watching. And I kept watching even though I was tired, and despite all the long commercials. It was not because of Sally Field. It was because the story line was pretty good. Not only it was charming, funny, and pleasing, but also it made me curious of what's going to happen. I ended up watching till the end and slept at 3:00 am, enduring all the commercials. This rarely happened in my life. As a Sally Field fan, I would like to give 5 stars, but to be fair, I would give 4 stars for this movie. Any love commedy fans should like this movie.

This item took almost a month to get to me, and just to charge my credit card, they took longer then they should, and I got charged NSF fees, for a few $'s and slow shipping.

Very unhappy!
