Where can one get the DVD "The Revolution will not be Televised"?
Edited on Sun Feb-05-06 09:34 AM by Mika
This film is much talked about here on DU and recommended by most all who mention it.

I can't seem to get it anywhere that I've looked.

Any help would be much appreciated.

3. Unbelievably it has yet to be released on dvd...
A friend just waitlisted it on Netflix in anticipation of its release, and then downloaded an MPG copy shot off TV (as in, a film of a TV screen playing it) via bittorrent... sorry I already lost the torrent link but if you search on this forum you can find it, assuming you have bittorrent (it's easy to install, just unbelievably slow compared to direct downloads).

Unfortunately, this historic documentary has yet to be released on video in the US, though it was screened in New York.

EVERYONE SHOULD SEE IT.

I saw it on German TV in 2003 - absolutely remarkable.

4. while you're at it, consider having a look at
"Life and Debt"
about Jamaica's exploitation under IMF rules
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00008NNPK/104-1291585-3918336?v=glance&n=130


and "The Corporation"
featuring Michael Moore amongst others.

6. I think you are out of luck--it has been "disappeared"
Unfortunately THE REVOLUTION WILL NOT BE TELEVISED is not available on DVD, and as of January of 2005 Power Pictures has stated that the film will not be distributed "in the foreseeable future."

Found that at a cache, the original link is gone, too:

9. Documentary Film Network
A Google search brought this up:

http://www.documentary-film.net/search/video-listings.php?e=14

Description: This documentary is probably one of the most controversial documentaries EVER MADE, (and one of the best). Its not surprising that dark forces have prevailed in intimidating potential screeners into effectively banning this doc. The last being Amnesty International who withdrew the doc from their festival after such intimidation. After seeing this film, you will see why! 20€ entitles you to: One year membership of venezuelasolidarity.org.uk, PLUS a free DVD of this film (inc. p&p), PLUS free screening of this doc in FULL available to watch online NOW.
