some time in the 1970's there was a biopic made about Leadbelly. Did anyone catch this or get a video, or buy the album - has it made it to dvd.
in the early days of satellite tv it was shown a few times in the early hours of the morning, but nobody I knew was capable of videoing it.

I've always had a hankering to see this film, even if it stinks, I feel it was an all right concept

any information gratefully received!
