Amy,
I also worked with a new company, Digitalia.  They were at National Media 
Market and have quite a collection of foreign films.

I've had some luck with Docuseek2. It is my understanding they have some 
specialty foreign import vendors under their banner.

If you're accustomed to searching Amazon, it could be helpful to search in the 
various national versions of the site (e.g. amazon.de<http://amazon.de>, 
amazon.fr<http://amazon.fr>, amazon.co.uk<http://amazon.co.uk>).  Obviously, 
the UK site is the best bet for English subtitles, but some of the German and 
French releases will have subtitles as well.  With France, these aren't always 
listed and you may need to do some additional research to determine subtitle 
availability.
Another site to check is daaveedee.com<http://daaveedee.com>, which is located 
in the U.S. and specializes in international DVD releases.
All best,

I was wondering what vendors you all use for buying  foreign language film DVDs 
with English subtitles or for streaming these films.  We buy many of ours 
through Amazon, but I have a hard time finding many of them there or anywhere 
really.  Kanopy has a few in their foreign language collection for streaming.  
Swank has a few.

I thought maybe I’m missing out on some vendors I should be aware of, but maybe 
not?

Thank you for any help you can give,

Amy, 

I don't have a good source for international streaming. If we can see that a 
DVD exists with captions (through the international Amazon sites, or OCLC), 
then we have gone to our international book vendor and request a copy with 
English subtitles. 

German or other European countries: Harrassowitz 
European countries: European Book Center 
Italy: Casalini 
Korea: Eulyoo Publishing Co. 
YesAsia: http://www.yesasia.com/us/en/home.html 

Online sources to see if a title exists (or to provide info to a vendor): 

AsianWiki: http://asianwiki.com/Main_Page 
Internet Bookshop Italia: https://www.ibs.it/

Amy,

If you're accustomed to searching Amazon, it could be helpful to search in
the various national versions of the site (e.g. amazon.de, amazon.fr,
amazon.co.uk).  Obviously, the UK site is the best bet for English
subtitles, but some of the German and French releases will have subtitles
as well.  With France, these aren't always listed and you may need to do
some additional research to determine subtitle availability.

Another site to check is daaveedee.com, which is located in the U.S. and
