I just bought "Tinker,Tailor,Soldier,Spy" and "Smiley's People" as Region 2 Boxset on Amazon For $17 bucks.....This is the original with Alec Guinness....I have a Pioneer Dvd Player that plays Sacd's and Ntsc/Pal all-region discs.I'm into Brit crime dramas,so I buy a lot from the UK

The 2 american versions would have been 3 times as much on amazon...way overpriced.I paid $35 for the complete 7 seasons of "Prime Suspect" with Helen Mirren...the US version was $75...It's worth it to get a Pal/Ntsc player if you love good Euro dramas....they make more "thinking" movies,than the crash and bash stuff that comes out of hollywood....can't wait for these two John LeCare masterpieces:mrgreen:

    Crime drama is way better in the UK. Wallender with Kenneth Branagh. Luther with Idris Elba are 2 of my favorites. Last good crime show in US was The Wire IMO. I'll have to look into Prime Suspect. Thanks

    I slept through most of Tinker, Taylor and so on this weekend. Damn if it's not the most boring movie I've ever watched.
