Re: [Videolib] L.A. Plays Itself

Michael, Well, first, it's *LOS ANGELES* PLAYS ITSELF -- anyone who sees the film (or knows Thom) knows that he is offended when people call his city L.A. -- just advance warning. Also, there might be some movement in the DVD field this year. But Gary's right, Thom has been selling his DVD-Rs
