Never released domestically in North America...

...either in the cinema or on home video, as far as I know. However, as Mr. Khomenko rightly points out, it is available on eBay.

A word of caution: the only DVD version currently available is defective--the frame was unevenly cropped so that about 10% is missing from the left side only, which of course is disastrous for the composition--not only is that much content missing, but what remains is noticeably off-centre as a result. (I learned this the hard way.) The best option right now is to find someone selling an NTSC conversion from the UK widescreen PAL VHS release, which is what I have. I am not in the video business, nor do I want to give anyone any free pubicity, so if you're interested, contact me privately and I'll tell you how I got it. (By the way, the same goes for PROSPERO'S BOOKS, with the exception that it is not available on DVD at all!)

Strange, in this day and age, that we still have to resort to this kind of thing occasionally...
