Re: [Videolib] When Billy Broke His Head (DVD?)

[Jessica Rosner]

Anthony thanks for providing the info. I want to remind folks that if you
are looking for a film that used to be in print from a company that still
exists SOMEWHERE they have some contact info. It is possible is out of
date, but this by far the best way to get contact info and sometimes you
may need to be a bit pushy to get it. You probably have to be sweet if is
say major company you have never done business with but if it is somewhere
you have ordered from, politely insist they look up what they had in the
contract which most of the time is online in their data base.

Hi All,

 

We don't distribute it anymore but I have contact information for the
producer. 

Email me "off list" and I can share it with you.

 

Meghann, I'm sending it to you now.

 

Take care,

Dear CW,

Just a quick note to see if anyone might have any information about the
availability of When Billy Broke His Head on DVD -- our heavily used VHS is
showing signs of wear (can't even make a preservation copy thanks to the
Macrovision) and Fanlight no longer distributes it.  If anyone knows of an
alternate distributor or of any forthcoming release plans, I'd be very
interested to hear.

Thanks in advance,

Yes, I remember that a sale was offered via Fanlight, which had been 
newly acquired by Icarus Films, but unfortunately we didn't move quickly 
enough and it was gone shortly thereafter. -- Meghann
