I was trying to remember the title a few weeks ago, so thanks. Are there any other old movies like this (probably), even B movies, lets get a list started. I bought and converted Nate and Hayes to DVD (since its no longer in production, was never realeased on DVD, and is no longer sold, thats legal), and I will be happy to trade with anyone who has another similar type movie that we can't find. There is a lot of confusion on this point, so I can see where you'd get that idea. But actually it's not legal. The current marketing status of an author's work has no legal impact on whether it's legal for you to sell or trade it. Right or wrong, the right to do that rests entirely with the copyright holder for as long as the copyright lasts. I expect now that I will be harangued by people with arguments that boil down to "I want it, he won't let me have it, so I'm gonna take it. Nobody get's hurt. Information wants to be free!" This evidently sounds reasonable to many, but it doesn't affect the way the law is written. It's a pecadillo in my book, but I'm not an attorney for a movie studio. I won't be trading, but I don't mind contributing to yet another "best sailing movies" thread. List: Master and Commander Nate and Hayes Captain Horatio Hornblower (Gregory Peck version - the A&E Hornblower is good too.) Dead Calm Captain Blood Krakatoa: East of Java Damn the Defiant! __________________________________________________ __________ Glen "Wiley" Wilson usenet1 SPAMNIX at world wide wiley dot com To reply, lose the capitals and do the obvious.
