As he lives in LA, many people have connections within the film industry and get access to such things as Academy Award screeners. I used to get these myself through a friend, they were on VHS when I got them with annoying banners periodically to discrourage copying. This year I heard the Academy Award screeners were only playable on special DVD players, but most likely, somehow or other, it is an industry connection. The other option is a pirated copy, and I do have Chinese friends who get $1 DVDs from China of movies well before they are released in America. Those are the only 2 options I can thind of, because none of these movies have been released to DVD yet.
