Since lately there have been admonishments on this list about its
use for locating films and videotapes, I ask this question with some
trepidation;  but, for those of us in the hinterlands (like here in
Dayton, Ohio, hometown of C. Francis Jenkins, Jay Leyda, and, apparently,
Emma Thompson), we have little choice when it comes to finding materials
for classroom use.  So ...
 
        Can anyone tell me where I could obtain, in any format for
classroom use, the noted Canadian Anglophone features *Nobody Waved
Goodbye* (Don Owen, 1964) and *Goin' Down the Road* (Don Shebib, 1970)?
Also, I would be interested in knowing of sources for Canadian features
in general (especially subtitled versions of Claude Jutra's earlier work).
 
        Thanks in advance.

"The universe was once conceived almost as a vast preserve, landscaped for
heroes, plotted to provide them the appropriate adventures.  The rules were
known and respected, the adversaries honorable, the oracles articulate and
precise as the directives of a six-lane parkway.  Errors of weakness or vanity
led, with measured momentum, to the tragedy which resolved everything.  Today,
the rules are ambiguous, the adversary is concealed in aliases, the oracles
broadcast a babble of contradictions."
