Now that there are a couple of notes asking whether "Brute Force" is 
available on video, I guess it needs its own topic.  So here it is.

	Recently a noter asked if the film, Brute Force, was available in cassette & if so who the vender might be. I too would like to know. It was a fine action film of it's time but for some reason it has long been out of circulation. Has this movie now become a so called vanished film due to deteriation of the film stock? I doubt it because it was filmed in B & W. I realize that the previous request for information was moved to #3 in the directory but I think that was a mistake as it is not seen unless someone idly looks at it.

	To answer the previous two question: the Internet Movie Database (now at http://us.imdb.com or http://uk.imdb.com) now includes links to stores that sell videos; there's one listed there as of this writing that has a Laserdisc available. Make sure you look for the 1947 version (there were two silents with the same title).
