Where can I find The Song of the South?

My mom bought a copy of it on video at a local farmer's market. She didn't notice that it was obviously a "homemade" copy of the movie...but that was the cover and case art. The movie itself looks great when you play it.

Does this sound legit? There is a seller on e-bay selling DVD copies of the movie. Claims that it will work on US DVD players.....in fact, says that it will work in ANY DVD region. Also claims that sound and picture quality are very good. Also says no subtitles. They are selling them for $2.99- Buy It Now price. Looks like the seller is located in Taiwan. Shipping is $9.99.

I'm skeptical,what do you all think?

Mine is a copy and works great. The picture quality is awesome, no subtitles. I also paid $20 for mine.

But, for $2.99, I'd be skeptical too. Especially with it being a "Buy It Now" price.

I will send you a PM with the name of the ebayer we got ours from. Have to wait until DH gets home since he bought it. He spent several weeks watching and looking for the right DVD to buy.

Has anybody ever ordered from this site?

I'm thinking it may be worth it - they have a sample clip to watch/listen to...

You can no longer buy the video in the UK
I, too, bought from E Bay about 2 years ago.

 

[whois figment]

Just ordered one off ebay I will let you know how it is when it comes in

Not to be the bearer of bad news and sound like someone preaching to everyone, but it is illegal to make or purchase a copy of a video or DVD. Even if you are the owner of a PAL format of the movie to make a NTSC version for yourself it is still illegal. That said we purchased a PAL VHS from the UK a few years ago and my DH converted it for me at his old job

After watching the movie I can't see what all the controversy is. It was a period piece. Nothing more. We can't change our history...only hope that we can learn from it!

I have to agree with this. DS had just studied the Civil War and Reconstruction in History class. He understood the setting. Great stories with Brer Rabbit and friends. Wish they would rerelease it soon
