OOPS my bad. Fox put out the DVD , MGM is the rights holder. If Swank does
not have it, than it is probably pulled for the remake which is pretty
common. My guess is the US distributor for MGM library theatrically Park
Circus is probably doing a limited reissue and college dates could screw
that. In most cases these pulled films come back in 6-12 months.

Just to clarify did you try Criterion Pictures USA ( not Criterion Janus)
as it was a Fox film and normally they would have rights?  However
sometimes remakes cause originals to be pulled from public shows.

[Videolib] Carrie (1976) screening license

[Gail Fedak]

Good afternoon,
A student group at MTSU wants to screen this title in October, but I'm having 
trouble finding who licenses it. I've checked with Swank, MPLC, New Yorker, 
Criterion, Facets, and GreenLight with no results. I've emailed MGM, but don't 
know how long they will take to answer, especially since they're releasing a 
remake in about three weeks. Is this even available to license?

Sincerely,
Gail
