I'm looking for some places to purchase obscure British World War I
films. This is for a research project, so it'd be best if I could get
them from places in the USA which can ship them to me quickly,
although I suppose places like ebay would work in a pinch. I have not
checked amazon or half.com for these. Here's the list of what I need:
Comradeship (1919)
Dawn (1928)
The Lost Patrol (1929)
Journey's End (1930)
Tell England (1931)
King and Country (1964)
Oh! What a Lovely War! (1969)
Aces High (1976)
The Trench (1999)

Just a suggestion, but you may be as well to retract the original
question and offer $3.00 or $4.00 each for the nine different films,
because no-one can really answer this until ALL films are found
whereas, with nine different questions you would be able to get the
films at least albeit one or two at a time.
Answer  
There is no answer at this time.

"Comradeship" is on a list of films described as "missing, believed lost."

I saw a copy of 'Aces High' for sale yesterday in my local (UK) video
shop.

Of course, it was a VHS PAL version ... so it would be no good if you
only have a NTSC system.

If it's still there, I could grab it on Monday.
