I had it on VHS and was thinking of asking my bro to get it on DVD for Christmas (or give him my copy to have converted)

We had a controversy over a person in a similar role here. Charles Kuralt was a journalist who also had a very pleasant voice. He hosted a weekend talk show and narrated travel pieces across the US. He was involved in many philanthropic activities and had a reputation as a conservationist and naturalist.
After his death, it turned out that he had
two families, although I gather that he was not technically a bigamist.
Quote:
For 29 years, until his death in 1997, he apparently kept a mistress and maintained a second family. The celebrated journalist was, in effect, husband and father to them, as well as breadwinner, friend and hero.
While his wife remained at their home in the concrete canyons of New York City, he nurtured his secret life along a rushing trout stream in Montana.

It's sort of like the US TV show "Green Acres", but with two wives

. Unlike some of the tawdry actions we're discussing here, it seems sort of idyllic. I also have to wonder if his wife didn't figure things out somewhere in those 29 years.
