Two of Barbara Michaels' novels have been filmed, both as made for TV movies. Ammie Come Home was filmed under the title The House That Would Not Die in 1970 and starred Barbara Stanwyck as Ruth Bennett. The second was The Crying Child, a 1996 TV movie starring Mariel Hemingway. The Crying Child was released on VHS from MCA Universal but is no longer in print. US members might be able to catch both films on TNT or TBS.
My paperback edition of Victoria Holt's Mistress of Mellyn announces "soon to be a major motion picture" which never materialized. There is a 1961 stage adaptation of Mistress of Mellyn by Mildred C Kuner which might have been a basis for a film version.
