Fred Ward

[Mike Weaver]

Jochen's and my little exchange about Miami Blues, led  me to a review 
of a very obscure Fred Ward film, UFOria 
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UFOria> which looks rather good but is 
another one to add to my list of films never to make it to DVD. Does 
anyone know it? Is it as good as Roger Ebert thought?
