    Sorry if there's a thread for this kind of thing already, I had a good look and couldn't see anything.

    Anyway, I watched a film on film4 the other night, a Brazilian one called "Os 3". Really enjoyed it and would love to get it on DVD. Have checked Amazon and ebay, can't find it on either. I've tried googling it but apparently OS3 is something iphoney or computery and I'm getting all sorts of results to do with that instead of the film.

    So, is there any other sites I should try? Legal of course. I know it'll be in Portuguese but I need to be able to tell if it's got English subtitles on it, so preferably an English language website. Any help greatly appreciated.

    Always best to use the English title when searching for foreign films released on DVD. We 3 isn't as I'm aware available on DVD yet, it came out less than a year ago in Brazil and it wouldn't be the first time Film4 have shown a foreign film before it got any home release. It will get a DVD release at some stage, Warner Bros were invovled in both funding and distributing the film

    I never thought of that. Silly me. I just assumed because it was on TV it would be on DVD, but they did say it was a TV premiere the other night, so it may well be that it's not on DVD yet. I'll just keep an eye out for it for a while then. Thanks.
