- In reply to Henry Kucera's request, but since it may be of wider interest,
- I'll send to the list:
-
- First, the film: a film version of Artur London's book The Confession,
- with the same title, directed by Costa-Gavras, with Yves Montand and
- Simone Signoret. Should be more-or-less widely available among foreign
- films in video rental/purchase shops? Supposed to be quite accurate, at
- least in giving the "feel" of things....
-
- Second, distributors: I suggest you try to contact Facets Video, a Chicago
- based outfit which specializes in real cinema, from all over the world, and
- distributes in different ways, rental, sale, etc., but at cost margins,
- not profit markups. I had GWU purchase Klos & Kadar's "Shop on Main Street"
- from them a year ago. Henry, the next time I'm in the office, I'll get their
- 800 number and send it to you.
-
- A guid New Year ta ane an' a'! [pardon me slipping into my "ethnic" dialect!]
