Excluding new releases, which films do you want to watch but cannot find?
I'm intrigued by
Once, an allegorical dialogue-free feature that premiered at Cannes in 1974. The film could be fascinating or boring as hell, but the soundtrack of lo-fi ambient electronics would make it worthwhile to find out.

I want to see Manfred Durniok - Under the Surface (1960)
It's not lost, but it's just not well-known enough to get much attention.
My hope is someone puts in on youtube as they have with Durniok's other works.

the first part of Harmony Korine's Jokes, directed by Gus van Sant, titled "Easter"
Jokes was supposed to be an omnibus film with three stories written by Korine and directed by other directors (Chris Cunningham was a possible candidate at one point)
unfortunately Korine got hardcore in to drugs, the movie studio went under, and the film was never completed. the "Easter" segment was, however, and was screened once at a film festival.
pic related, probably the only image on the internet from the film

BFI Most Wanted - The hunt for Britain's missing filmshttp://old.bfi.org.uk/nationalarchive/news/mostwanted/http://old.bfi.org.uk/nationalarchive/news/mostwanted/75-list.html
> Here at the BFI National Archive, we're committed to filling the gaps in the national collection and are asking the nation to help us; this list of 75 'Most Wanted' British films contains titles we would like to preserve and make available. Their most wanted is the only missing Hitchcock film –
The Mountain Eagle.
http://old.bfi.org.uk/nationalarchive/news/mostwanted/mountain-eagle.html
> Among the most 'wanted' of all missing films, The Mountain Eagle is the only one of Hitchcock's films as director to be lost (save for the never completed Number Thirteen, 1922), and hence something of a Holy Grail for film historians. It was dismissed by Hitchcock, in conversation with François Truffaut, as "a very bad movie"; but then the director could be brutally disparaging about his early films, notably The Farmer's Wife (1927) and The Manxman (1929), the second of which in particular is widely judged a very fine example of advanced silent film style.

almost all of richard foreman's films. i found a few on youtube a while back and so i have shitty vhs quality youtube rips of three of them, but he made a lot and i can't find them (for free on the internet that is, i did find one that was extremely expensive: http://www.eai.org/titleOrderingFees.htm?id=2357#terms and then there seems to be a library where you can view them by appointment, but fuck man)

The BTTF hubbub reminded me of Crispin Glover's own weird films which he refuses to let anyone watch unless he's in the same room.
What Is It? leaked in a shitty form. And he's really pissed off about the leak. I remember watching part of it where Crispin sat in a Nazi uniform while some retard was getting a handjob. Adam Parfrey is in there too somewhere (check out his book Apocalypse Culture).
The second one It Is Fine! Everything Is Fine can only be seen if his tour stops by your city.

The one with Crispin in a Nazi uniform and the retard. Before the screening he read from two(?) of his books, I really enjoyed that. The film was pretentious as fuck for me. After the screening you could buy the books and get a photo with him.

Ah yeah. That film was very odd and I might have bailed out in the middle, ha ha.
I remember in an interview he talked about doing a slide show of old medical images as part of the show. I found this video and it looks like he's trying to create a funny story out of the images, but I'm not too impressed. Maybe there's too much hype for all of this...

> The film shows how the mostly fatherless families in these two countries find ways to survive. In this society it must appear to be a matter of great fortune to marry someone like the Swiss Daniel. This is why Sveta is very happy when her daughter and Daniel marry. Her life was very hard. Her only goal today: her daughter Romina should have a better life, in safety and with dignity. However, things are not as simple as they appear.

I'd like to be able to see Michael Mann's early films like Jaunpuri (1971), 17 Days Down the Line and Insurrection. Apparently the AFI has a copy of Jaunpuri but Mann now considers it to be embarassing and prefers it not to be shown. Maybe it will come out after his death, like Kubrick's Fear and Desire did.

Yeah this BBC video updates the situation with some new unreleased production photos.
It's weird how we kind of passed a tipping point with this film. It's been talked about for decades with minimal information and no chance of ever seeing it. Then recently new content started to drip out every few months, and now a possible release date. It's must be a combination of Jerry Lewis approaching the end of his life and enough people on the internet pressing the issue.
