if you ever get the chance watch Clint Eastwoods "BIRDIE" a biopic about Charlie Parker but most of all you should see DIANA ROSS' Oscar winning performance in "LADY SINGS THE BLUES" a biopic about BILLIE"LADY DAY" HOLLIDAY

Sorry TOMTHEBOMB you are right i do apologise i honeslty did know that but got carried away as soon as i thought of Yardbird, everyone knows CB's "MY FUNNY VALENTINE" i do apologise TTB

definately a great film
now a legal question
i bought the film LEGALLY from playusadotcom(put it this way so it doesnt create a link) before the film was even released in the UK(was an HBO tv movie that was given a cinema release) now the legal bit i buy the film legally before it is released in the UK am i allowed to sell it on ebay/amazon/at a car boot sale. it is not a pirate but it isnt an official british film either. if you look on the above site there are plenty of films on there that havent yet had a british release.
In September 1988 i went to Florida on holiday & the video shops were selling TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES video i asked innocently ;-) if they would play on british video players the shopkeeper said no but he could transfer 1 to PAL i said ok i'll have 5 then(film wasnt released in britain til boxing day '88 but had had plenty of pre publicity hype) i gave 3 to neices/nephews kept 1 & sold the 5th for the price i paid for all 5 was this illegal or not
just 1 of lifes conundrums

Legal answer................You can buy what you like. Any problems would only arise if you try to sell these on if they're not marked with the British age symbols.
