We are paying about $130 per film for one semester, and that's through a consortium.

Even for a day (or a week or two) with an identified number of students? Is it outrageously prohibitive? Does Swank do that? My likely alternative is to put copies on reserve in our three locations and recommend local libraries, Netflix, and local rental locations.
