So Big is another title that has disappeared. Both versions are MIA.
For many of these films, there is some element (writer, adaptation, music)
for which there is a problem. One would have to do a little research to find
out what exactly is keeping these titles in the vault. In the case of Animal
Crackers, for instance, George S. Kaufman held it up via the copyright
renewal of the play rights; he would not sign off on them. Vertigo was held
up because of the screenplay rights, prompting a court case that is still
cited in licensing textbooks.
