It is on DVD. There are two versions, and one is highly superior. In fact, to my knowledge, that version on the better DVD was played on Palladia channel (I forget what it's called now), as was the widescreen versions of his other theatrical releases. I actually made a DVD of it when it aired, not knowing about the subsequent DVD release. I think it's actually BluRay, but I forget off hand. Search Amazon for it. Or the Org for deets.

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

Who cares, it was on American television more than a couple of times. It's also Region 1 which works in the United States. So - yeah.

I have 3 copies of this film
One is the original VHS
Canadian DVD version in widescreen and
The recent Blu-ray release
I'd say the Canadian DVD version is the best one

I played it for my son, who had seen Prince several times with me but had never seen the Sign 'O The Times movie and he was blown away. As was I... wink The Canadian version is definitely the best IMO.

Simply untrue. Around 2006/7 it was on Palladia, and someone mentioned Starz. Both of those are cable, and one is premium.

That's the DVD to get! I'm told the Japanese Blu-ray is pretty great, too.

Which Blu-ray do you have that looks worse than the DVD? Because that's not right.

A UK orger was nice enough to send a copy to me here in the States when the DVD was bundled with a newspaper there a while ago.

I don't think I ever thanked him or her properly for the kind gesture. I still have it to this day.

I want to know who gave permission to re-release Sign O The Times with unseen footage without my permission or other band members permission. !!! The last I checked it was a concert and then it went to film. I've not even seen the new footage of the film. Prince passed away he didn't leave a will so my contract therefore has ended so any new material has to be approved by me and I cannot speak for other band members but I'm sure by them aswell. !!!!! Your NOT going to make ...a buck off me like everyone else is making a buck off Prince. I am very loyal and will always stay loyal ❤️❤️ Also I was the co star of that movie I also edited the movie in Hollywood with Prince. Do not put me in that "Golden Parachute" category. Someone needs to contact my business manager Hayley Drinkall ASAP !!! haleno1@me.com email address ......Before this goes to Showtime because showtime is pay per view cable. I have not approved the new footage I refuse to have it released until you speak to my business manager.


Oh and this hologram thing with Prince. Prince did not like the fact they were doing a Michael Jackson hologram so how the HELL would he like them doing a hologram of him .......with the NPG!! ????? YOUR DANCING TO THE DEAD !!!! Have you all gone mad at Paisley Park. For real. !!!!!!!!

A) What's this "unseen footage" Cat is talking about?

2) What's this about a hologram Cat is talking about?

III) Why is this in "Concerts"? It seems to me like people that might be interested in this movie been aired on a cable station might not check this forum.

That link doesn't work for me, logged in or out of FB.

She has zero rights to SOTT. Once again, she thinks she was the ONLY it girl to work with Prince. No, Ms. Glover, you were one in a long line. Doesn't she know Prince owned EVERYTHING, and now the estate has control of it? They don't need her permission for jack diddly. She's reaching, and incorrect, about her contract. Anything she did while employed by Prince is owed by him and can be used by him at any given time. Now the PRN estate has that right.

Now she edited the movie, too?! Next week she's going to claim she wrote Lovesexy or some shit. She should team up with Sheila - who thinks she, too, was Prince's only girl and no one else ever in the history of the whole fucking universe knew Prince.

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

Cat Glover should shut her delusional ass up and be thankful Prince even hired her to be in his band and movie at all! If she doesn't have any financial stakes in the film, then she should be happy Showitme is showing Prince's magnum opus of a concert film and worry about getting as many shifts as she can at Subway, Mcdonalds, Dominos, or whatever low wage fast food spot she's working at. Like Kendrick Lamar said-BE HUMBLE!

Wait. Hold on. Her cringe-worthy grievances are for naught if she doesn't own the film rights, which is profoundly doubtful.
