In general BBC is VERY, VERY protective of any public shows of Dr. Who. It may well be difficult to impossible to license. As a side note they are somewhat preoccupied with a huge world wide event on 11/23 to celebrate the 50th Anniversary which may explain delay in responding. Good luck and

After seeing if film archives and other film collectors want any of them, contact recycling companies. We had a local company take the leftover films, reels, and racks they had been stored on. Barb Bergman | Media Services Interlibrary Loan Librarian | Minnesota State University, Mankato |

Hi all, Does anyone know if a DVD copy of the French film on teaching, A Passion for Life is available? It's a 1951 feature film, I believe. I don't think it's even officially in distribution anymore, but I'm only seeing VHS copies anyway. If no DVD is available, does anyone know who to

Jeff I'd suggest a BBC-WGBH coproduction, the series The Machine that Changed the world. It is very extensive, and if you look at the summaries, you may find exactly what you need. We only have it on VHS. I haven't checked to see if it's avail on DVD. Sent by Susan On Oct 28, 2013, at 9:53

Sadly this falls right into the issue I was posting about yesterday, the overwhelming majority of non US films not being in distribution in the US. Brandon films is long gone and even if they ever had legit rights they would be expired. I suspect Water Bearer may have distributed as a Public

OOPS just checked with WB and they say the DVD IS in French with titles UNLESS as happens in parts of the film the characters are SPEAKING in English. Amazon is WRONG. It used to be really hard to see a 35mm print that was not dubbed. sorry for the faulty intel. On Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 5:02

I have the personal assurance by top person at WB that DVD in print HAS subtitles except for those parts of the film where characters actually speak in English. If you read the Amazon listing it is somewhat vague by using the word dubbed in the format . Shorter answer YES , BUT IT . GREAT FILM
