    Jon—Thanks, this is a movie I have long wanted to see, and, as I guess no one knows better than you, it is frustrating when such a movie seems impossible to find (at least, in English). Also, I am always very happy when an equally rare foreign film Oscar nominee shows up (The Ninth Circle, Arms and the Man, more recently, Paix Sur les Champs and La Venganza). I hope you keep them coming—as with all things Oscar, quality may vary, but if unseen, who can tell? Thanks again.
