I can promise you that Kanal is never going to be on DVD... not on VHS even (practically speaking) - try finding it anywhere in the US... I have been loking for years. Do you have it?You have better luck finding Wajda's "Landscape After Battle" - also recommended.
Follow Ups:
I have a fuzzy second generation copy that I would give my left eye to replace with a dvd.Amazon claims to have two VHS copies in stock.
I sometimes neglect to look in the used area - I bought it now.With something like that the quality of the original is also suspect, so unless someone like Criterion did its job on it the DVD would look bad too. Many bad videos are bad not because of the tape - a good VHS tape can be quite good.
I've seen plenty of crappy dvds, but I would really love to see a clean version of Kanal. My copy was of dubious origin to begin with, and after umpteen replays has not gotten any better.My hopes that his work would get more attention were raised a few years ago when Wajda received a lifetime Oscar, but that has not happened.
***My hopes that his work would get more attention were raised a few years ago when Wajda received a lifetime Oscar, but that has not happened.What a joke. To dump it on the audience 98% of this went "Waj... Who?"
I would never expect Wajda's films be popular in America, not without special effects, social agendas to attach the ribbons to, and without Hollywood bimbo's (althogh the Polish beauties would show them few things), but even I am a bit surprised at the obscurity.
