:Dreyer, Malle, and Makavejev, to name a few, and my appreciation for
:other filmmakers with whom I was somewhat familiar has deepened. For
:this I am eternally grateful.

:I have a request: would you consider doing reposts now that the group

:I became aware of the group late in the game, I missed out on some
:movies I really want to see (or see again).

:Please don't bother responding to this request by posting more .nzb. My
:IP provides access to GigaNews, which I understand is a pretty good
:news server, and while retention is pretty good by this group's
:standards, none of the titles on the list below are accessable to me
:using .nzb. Even the few "premium" servers I've browsed don't seem to
:have any of the (non-BluRay) titles below available, so I'm not
:particularly enthusiastic about paying for access to a server that
:might not do the job.

:So, I want to ask: will some kind soul please consider reposts of the
:following titles? I'd appreciate it.
:
:In any case, thanks again.

:My wish list:
:L'AVVENTURA
:BEAUTY AND THE BEAST
:BLACK ORPHEUS
:BRAZIL
:LE CORBEAU
:THE HIDDEN FORTRESS
:ONIBABA
:SEVEN SAMURAI
:THE THIRD MAN
:THE WAGES OF FEAR
Hello Ralph,
It seems you are not using Giganews. You are using SaskTel. While Giganews might
be providing NTTP for them, it is certainly not their regular service.
The very first post to this group was La grande illusion (1937), which I posted
522 days ago. (I have since reposted it.)
My original post is still available on Giganews, as is every post ever posted to
this group.
There is no point in reposting previous posts for someone who is unwilling to
expend the minimum effort on their part. Giganews has a free trial, so you may
test my hypothesis free of charge.
