Editorial Review:
Amazon.com essential video: Novelist James Clavell wrote, produced, and directed this 1967 British film (based on a novel by E.R.

The spirit of this movie can be found in such recent films as Dangerous Minds and Mr. Holland's Opus, but none is as moving as this one. Besides, the others don't have a title song performed by pop star Lulu. --Tom Keogh

It seems that the only way to get a copy of this film anymore in Region 1 format is through one of Amazon's third party suppliers. There are many Region 2 versions available but they will not play on my US equipment.

If all things are more or less equal (price, shipping charges, etc.) I will tend to probably buy from one with a good reputation AND that is fairly close to my home. ... Read More
