Nice to see this getting a bit more exposure. It's a quirky film but I enjoyed it when I saw it last year.
So hip
This is a great film, but this is not the proper release that people have been waiting for. It's been on YouTube for years, and the copy is a rather poor TV rip. The colour scenes (important for the plot) are washed out.
One private movie torrent tracker had a TV rip of this uploaded 4 years ago.
Sounds like it was released. How else did it end up on TV?
