E and I saw La Antena at SIFF last year and, as I said in my review, it was marvelous. E and I have both been itching to see it again ever since. Unfortunately, it hasn't gotten a wider release here and isn't available on DVD in the US. However, I did some googling and found here that the Argentinian DVD has English subtitles. One person recommended this site (and gave some tips for negotiating their site if you don't read Spanish), so I ordered it. It just arrived. I was worried about being able to watch it, since it's supposed to be region 4, but for whatever reason it ran fine on my DVD player. And not only does it have the movie, there's a great "making of" short and some other extras. There's also a torrent out there which works, but I'm glad to have the DVD.

and after watching it again, we still both thought it was great. Again, one of the best films I've seen in a long time.
