Giggin, I am so happy you've seen this movie. I found Alan's performance spellbinding, much like the effect Rasputin must have had on the royal family.

Yay! I'm so glad people are finally finding this film. It's just so wonderful.
HBO should be ashamed of themselves for locking away such a magnificent performance. This needs to be out on DVD...

I have a dvd player that can be modified by using a code to play all regions I feel so lucky to actually own this movie on dvd!

Dear nice people at HBO:
Please release Rasputin on a region 1 DVD (preferably with Alan commentary) Trust me, we WILL buy it!
Sincerely, Cissy
this is now my second-favorite Alan movie (RH is my favorite, because it was the first Alan movie I saw)

I'm dying to see this movie too after alll the raves I'm hearing. I went to my library's website and was able to search for the movie in the county's database and located copies. Two were out so there must be Rickmaniacs living close by, LOL. Anyway the local library can get a loaner from another district which is great news.

Alan's performance in this movie is worth whatever you have to go through to get it. I've only watched it once so far, because he's so powerful in this movie, I have to rest for awhile. Sorry, I can't help raving over this.

Yay for libraries for carrying this movie!
(seriously, it makes me so happy to see that so many people are able to track this movie down)

That is where I got my copy! Then a fellow Rickmaniac who wanted it dropped me a line to let me know it needed to go back soon so she could get her fix as well!!
And I needed a break after this one too, I mean it is that powerful of a performance. I really wish HBO would release it.

It isn't due until Wednesday. I want to watch it at least once or twice more before I return it! I love the story, and of course his performance is amazing! This movie really does need to be released on DVD region 1.

I had to return my copy to the library yesterday...*sobs*
"Ma'am, you need to let go of the videotape"
It is really bad when your fingers have to be pried off videotapes...

This movie really does need to be released on DVD region 1. I smell a letter writing campaign! I was a nice person and returned my library's copy. And then I was selfish and bought the only copy in a local video store. I could have been nice and rented it for a week and allowed others to view it. But I was selfish (and dude, it was $3! You don't pass that up). I love being evil... :-)

Not evil honey...just in love!! At least that is the way I see it...after all, what is not to love in that movie?
Now about that letter writing campaign....

Now about that letter writing campaign.... I'm up for it. After all, Alan has over 65K votes in the Hello Mag poll. That's got to show HBO a tangible fan base and justification for the DVD. Or maybe we should go through Amazon and let that mega-giant pressure them. Or maybe both. ;D
