Ta-Pocketa-Pocketa-Pocketa

One of my favorite authors is James Thurber. His writings revealed a soul of wit and humor. One of my favorite memories of Junior High School at Western Oaks was our production of “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty”.
For those of you not familiar with the short story, Walter Mitty is a day-dreamer who escapes his nagging wife and hum-drum existence with escapes of fantasy. It was turned into a play and then finally a movie with Danny Kaye. Although Thurber didn’t like the movie, I have always loved it. I am disappointed to find that most of the DVDs on sale are imports with unknown region encoding.
However, I am able to get a ‘Thurber fix’ by downloading My World and Welcome To It from Audible.com.
So when will this classic movie be re-released on DVD? I look forward to this day.
As a note, it appears that Jim Carrey is interested in a re-make.
