apparently since taiwan joined the WTO some dvd and cd releases that were previously legal are soon not to be. so some shops are selling off the cheapo dvds they still have in stock at wonderfully cheap prices. these are mostly old movies(often times dubbed from vhs copies i believe) of varying qualities. so i bought up a bunch in the last couple of days:

• the prize
  
• the hunchback of notre dame
  
• the lost weekend
  
• it happened one night
  
• pygmalion
  
• marty
  
• the third man
  
• the wizard of oz
  
• the diary of anne frank

now i just need to find the time to sit down and watch some of these.
