Crimson Gold was this indie film from the late 80s that got some buzz in underground film circles for its raw emotion and unique aesthetic, but after an initial screening, it just disappeared. No VHS, no DVD, not even a crummy bootleg.
Rumor has it that the director got into some hot water legally and basically torched all the copies. But you know how it goes, there's always one that gets away, right? It's a long shot but figured if anyone’s got the skinny, it’d be someone here.

Honestly, I think Crimson Gold is just another movie myth. Too many times we've chased shadows thinking it's some lost masterpiece. Yet, here I am, still lurking on this subreddit, hoping someone proves me wrong. What can I say? The thrill of the hunt, I guess. Sad reality: most lost media stays lost.

Yo, I got tons of old indie films digitized from VHS, but never stumbled upon Crimson Gold. Gotta say, I'm intrigued. Gonna ask around in some private tracker forums. If it's out there, it's hiding in plain sight in the deepest corner of the internet. I’ll report back if I find something.

Crimson Gold...that takes me back. I remember seeing a poster for the film at a local arthouse cinema, but I never got the chance to see it. It's like a fragment of a dream now. I always imagined how that raw emotion would've played on screen. If someone out here really has it, sharing it would be like giving a piece of lost time back to the world.

I’m quite familiar with Crimson Gold. The director had a unique vision that was ahead of its time. Legally, the situation was complex; the music rights alone were a minefield. There are rumors of a private collector in Europe who has a 16mm print, but that’s unconfirmed. If you’re really committed, I’d suggest reaching out to former film school professors from that era or diving into legal records to find any possible leads connected to the director’s estate.

Crimson Gold, huh? I've heard whispers about it in the tape trading circles years ago. Thought it was just an urban legend, honestly. Hate to break it to ya, but if the director really did a number on the copies, it’s gonna be like finding a needle in a thousand haystacks. Still, I’ve seen stranger things get unearthed. Keep your eyes peeled on eBay and obscure film forums. Sometimes miracles happen.
