Not sure if this will help but I sent a friend of mine who knows the director an email asking if he could find it. He had previously said something to the effect that the director had the rights so I am guessing this is actually not an HBO issue.

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.
