Price differences, availability or popularity of products can be just matters of considerable relativity. One might scan Amazon and see a DVD rare, supposedly out of print U,S film pressed in Spain and the price is $35 (and only 2 copies available. Then you see that ‘fact’ is further confirmed by a respected website. Imagine then going into low price budget store and seeing stacks of the same DVD newly repressed under the banner of a major studio who made it..selling for $4.99! Or others that sell as inferior DVD-R’s (small runs) made by a big U.S studio for U.S $20, yet you pick up a genuine hard DVD edition released by the same studio for $5 made in another country, where they have pressing plants. In someone’s bargain bin! It is ‘luck of the draw’!
It depends, who has rights to distribute what, if it takes their fancy.
I have been thinking for a while…something has been bugging me….who the hell K.J reminds me of ….
Why it was, of ‘Sabrina’ the English blonde model- bimbo and walk-on walk- off attraction of the then comatose ‘variety show’ circuit… ‘a British sensation’ of the 50′s. Patrons off such shows were always promised ‘novelty acts’???!! K.J – I think is the operatic version for this criteria..Where, also it was said of Sabrina : “If she fell over on the street, she could not hit her face. Her knockers would save her and act as over-large shock absorbers”
