The faculty member who is interested in this has her own French-only DVD release, but was really looking for one with English subtitles for use with one of her classes. All of these currently available on amazon.ca appear to be French-only versions. Thanks for your help. Rick

Check amazon.ca<http://amazon.ca> they have some copies not sure how legal those are, also kind of expensive however the film is worth that price Good luck Cindy Sent from my iPad On Aug 27, 2014, at 7:49 PM, "Jessica Rosner" <maddux2...@gmail.com<mailto:maddux2...@gmail.com>> wrote: You could try to see if it was released in the UK and get a PAL copy but it was never released in the US and asking the rights holder to sell one DVD with English titles in NTSC on a film they failed to sell in the US is not likely to work and not worth tracking them down. Keep in mind well over 90% of films made outside the US are not released here. On Wed, Aug 27, 2014 at 5:34 PM, Sayre, J.
