Does this mean all the copies Video Dealers sell here are bootlegs.......

The horror, the horror

This is strange, since most of the convention dealers say they get their
copies from Europe and Australia. If the covers are just colour photocopies,
they're very professional.

what you deserve... :)

Seriously, I do think it is available there somewhere, and if you have trouble
locating it perhpas our friends in NZ could help you; in talking to Bryce Utting
I'm quite sure it's available there.

If you can talk brilliantly enough about a problem, it can
create the consoling illusion that it has been mastered...

It is possible to buy PAL copies of ACO (Warner Home Video) in virtually
every video store in Sweden. However, these copies are (probably always)
subtitled in Swedish. The same goes for Barry Lyndon.
