_Berkeley Square_ has never been released in home viewing format and is considered something of a holy grail for film collectors. One collector in San Francisco, with access to archives in Europe and Latin America, has never been able to track down an undamaged copy. In fact, even the 1951 remake starring Tyrone Power, Roy Ward Baker's _I'll Never Forget You_ (aka _The House in the Square_) has proven very hard to find. It's almost as if the surrealists were playing a private joke!

Subject: [SCREEN-L] Berkeley Square

I recently read Franklin Rosemont's André Breton collection, and one of the few films Breton talks about other than _L'Age d'Or_ is _Berekely Square_, a supernatural film from the UK.  I haven't been able to find a copy.  Was it ever released in a home video format in the US?
