It seems to be back on Amazon Direct for $16.75: https://www.amazon.com/Fair-Lady-Blu-ray-Audrey-Hepburn/dp/B00NN78PKY/ref=ice_ac_b_dpb_twi_blu_2?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1500330691&sr=1-1&keywords=My+Fair+Lady
Perhaps, Amazon's stock for this title was just temporarily depleted?
CHEERS! :)
Hi Stanley!
I find it very hard to believe that a set such as this that has reportedly sold so well would be out of print (With out of print meaning no more copies will be pressed!) a little more than 4 months after its release! In my opinion, temporary lack of availability due to demand...
I agree that keeping old/inferior versions in the marketplace are a source of confusion and headache, and would love it if those could disappear!
Unfortunately, in a lot of instances, that just isn't realistic. Like it or not, Home Video companies are in business to make money. When they do...
Amazon Canada currently has MFL50 in stock: https://www.amazon.ca/Fair-Anniversary-Edition-Blu-ray-Bilingual/dp/B015SXVSRW/ref=pd_cp_74_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=0PNTE33H307CYHFCZARV
CHEERS! :)
While I don't usually like to harp much about packaging, I don't disagree in this case. I mean, I've never previously felt compelled to warn my wife about cutting herself in connection with handling video packaging! :rolleyes:
Regarding video playback, I haven't run into any issues with either...
I don't know why that possibility hadn't occurred to me before, but that does seem plausible! However, if that is indeed the case, I do wonder why the set simply wasn't pulled by Amazon, as they have done this with other items, even just for packaging issues?
CHEERS! :)
Amazon might just be out of copies at the moment. Plenty of Third party sellers seem to have decent pricing, at any rate!
I can't imagine such a huge release going out of print THIS fast...
Hi Kevin!
Where I grew up in Canada, sometimes the French Language channel was the only one that had anything on. To my best recall, whenever an English Language original program reached a musical section, the English lyrics were indeed, almost never dubbed. I think what it is, is that while...
That's a fantastic deal, and Target supposedly also ships to Canada, though I'm not sure how that works since the entire Canadian chain vacated earlier this year!
I am however, a bit annoyed that the inferior 2011 Blu-ray version seems to sneak into the "Also Viewed" options within the 50th...
Hi Stanley!
At least now I know it isn't just me! :)
I suppose it could be a combination of Forum/Browser issues?
For the record, Google Chrome is what I normally use.
CHEERS! :)

It's very technical, but from what I've read on the subject of audio/visual sync issues on DVD/Blu-ray, it is largely dependent on the Playback Device's capabilities regarding syncing it up, as the audio and video are never technically in sync on the Discs themselves!
I won't be playing the...
Hi Anthony!
A bit chary, indeed! ;)
Seriously though, other than perhaps being a bit too kind in labeling the "previous release" watchable, it's a most loverly review! :)
CHEERS! :)
