We can't get Red Sorgham or Raise the Red Lantern either. At least Netflix does not have them and they usually have just about everything out on DVD, region 1.

But they have a lot of Hou Hsiao-hsien. (I must confess, Trevor, I rented his Puppetmaster a while ago, and just could not get through it. I was so excited about it because the great critic Jonathan Rosenbaum praised it highly. But I could not quite get into it. Maybe another time...)

Why don't they standardize all DVDs and all DVD players so we could all have everything each country has access to?
