My wife was wondering about this also. She was able to contact Alan Osmond about why this movie isn't available on DVD. Apparantly, the movie isn't owned by the Osmond family (known as "The Osmond Brothers Partnership"). The partnership owns the rights to their song catalog, but as for the movie itself, WorldVision has the rights to it. Even though it's a depiction of the early Osmond family. If this movie was created or directed by any of the Osmond family, then they would own the rights to the movie. So, I guess you'll have to talk to WorldVision about that.
Yes, Donny Osmond won a Grammy Award in 1972 for Best New Artist.
