Mahoney's Last Stand

[Mitchell Perkins]

Hi All,

 

I am trying to lcate anyone who worked on or has any information on the 1972 film "Mahoney's Last Stand" aka "Mahoney's Estate" aka "Downtown Farmer".

 

The DP was Harry Makin. I called him 20 years ago about the film, but didn't follow through. I'm going to try to contact him again elsewhere, but maybe he will see this. Harry? :)

 

I first saw the film 30 years ago, and never since, until it re-surfaced on youtube 6 months ago. The picture quality is tragic, old VHS or something, but I have sourced a DVD copy for myself which I'm hoping will be better.

 

I can't help wondering (really, a lot) whether any original elements/prints exist, because a remaster would be wicked. Failing that I'm interested in any anecdotes or memories...anyone?
