re:Ashby-Word on the net is it's either Shampoo or Harold & Maude. Paramount had been working on a deluxe of the latter but the elements were in pretty rough shape.

already working out the most virtriolic variants on "Certified Copy was 'minor Kiarostami' and they put out this??!"
― encarta it (Gukbe), Tuesday, 15 November 2011 20:43 (fourteen years ago)
I still think the Certified Copy snub was more along the lines of it not being so much "minor" as just not a high priority at that moment.
― The Man With The Flavored Toothpick (C. Grisso/McCain), Tuesday, 15 November 2011 20:47 (fourteen years ago)
Which seems ridiculous to me, what with all the accolades. Still not released on DVD.
