There was a PAL version of the Mankiewicz film but it has been withdrawn (presumably in conjunction with the release of the new Phillip Noyce version). You might try to find a copy for sale on E-Bay or elsewhere. Otherwise, check university libraries and similar sources. There is a VHS copy, for example, at U of North Carolina. It is likely that you could find another in the Chicago area. Don Larsson ----------------------------------------------------------- "Only connect" --E.M. Forster Donald F.
