If for any reason you don't get anywhere with that , contact Sony. They seem to have a current contract for DVD rights and it is very likely that whomever they have DVD rights from also owns PPR rights. In general if you are trying to find who owns PPR rights on a title without an obvious owner AND the film seems to be currently in print in home dvd, try politely but persistently to get info from the DVD distributor. Seriously this info should be at their finger tips but for some reason many have a hard time coughing it up but trust me the have the information because they have a contract.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
