I understand about obligations, we all do. I think due to consumer
demand and possibly a shrinking film market that the film business will
be streamlining and that's going to limit films we can use.

In that case what I would like to do is have them (if they're still
willing) to send the film directly to you. My private (?) e-mail is
below. Send your street address and I will give it to the film guy.
Hope you don't mind being volunteered. All of us appreciate all your
time and effort to save us time and effort when it comes to analylzing
films.

Thanks,
Alan
