Michael Roemer still teaches at Yale and can be reached by sending an email to the Film Studies Program administrator, katherine.germ...@yale.edumailto:katherine.germ...@yale.edu. I don't know if he retains the rights to the film, but by asking him you'll get the most direct response. Ann

[Videolib] Mein Krieg DVD

2010-11-17 Thread Karen Ketchaver
Colleagues, I'm searching for a DVD of Mein Krieg (written and directed by Harriet Eder and Thomas Kufus). It was released by Kino on Video in 2000 but apparently is out of print. Four third-party sellers are offering it on Amazon, but the price is prohibitive (almost $300 for a new copy, and

If you don't hear from him try to contact the DuArt labs in New York. Irwin Young, head of DuArt, was among the producers of the film, and his brother Robert, is credited as cinematographer but according to some versions of the story might be thought of as co-director. On Wed, Nov 17, 2010 at

[Videolib] seeking a source for telenovelas on dvd

We've had some requests for telenovelas (if that's the proper plural form...) on DVD and haven't been able to find a source for them. This seems odd to me since when I screen the offerings on the Spanish language tier of my cable company's listings, telenovelas seem to be everywhere. Can

It's not in DVD distribution. Make a DVD replacement copy under Section 108 of the copyright law. The law requires initial attempts to purchase a legit replacement at fair market, but I am certain that it can be demonstrated that $300 is not fair market. The one catch is that 108 mandates that

Well we always disagree on this Gary. What you suggest is pretty much a license to transfer all VHS copies to DVD if there is not a $30 retail copy available. The law is very specific so why would one need a test case. If you want to change the law you can lobby Congress, but the law clearly

I'm pretty sure Wild River (1960), a wonderful film included in the set, has never been available on video or DVD before. That one would also make the set worth getting if the films aren't available separately. _ Alex O. Williams Institutional Sales AFD / Typecast Films Seattle,

From press release: The studio confirms that at this time singles will not be available. So anyone wishing to purchase the previously unreleased titles may only do so through this set. That said, many are already available as separate DVDs. Looks like you'll need the box set to get the

Fox does not own AMERICA, AMERICA and this set has a number of other films that were clearly licensed specifically for the set and do not belong to Fox. They do own Wild River, Tree Zapata, but they probably don't see any money in separate releases. On Wed, Nov 17, 2010 at 6:55 PM, Steffen,
