Ah yes -- I KNEW there was a reason why I felt a warmth and sense of security and less apprehensive when I held an actual DVD or BluRay in my fat little fingers instead of drinking that Kool-Adi that said, "Oh, physical media is dead -- no one needs to buy DVDs or BluRays --every film will be available on the streaming services, any time, anywhere you want to see it. Ha HA! Now that we are doing remote teaching and the Film Department professors no longer have access to our physical film library, it becomes apparent that many, MANY films are not available thru the more popular streaming services and that's includes titles that once WERE available, all of sudden, magically are gone.
I know we have two copies on a shelf in a secure vault...but of course that's now off limits. And I am not talking about the many obscure titles that are in our library, but big, acclaimed titles like Preminger's ADVISE AND CONSENT. A professor is teaching it in his class and gave a frantic call that he needs it for his next lesson. He needs his students to have access to stream it before his Zoom class meets next.
If anyone knows of a streaming service where one can rent this title, that information would be much appreciated. Thanks
Everyone keep safe out there.
