I've been trying to find this movie for under $20, anyone know a website that has a legit version for relatively cheap?

No (you won't be able to get it for under 20$)

Including or excluding shipping? It's currently on amazon.com marketplace for $17.99 used (what's domestic shipping in the US - $3 or so?), or you can pay $0.54 more for a new copy...

Go for the Australian (http://www.ezydvd.com.au/item.zml/229490) disc -it's got a beautiful transfer and of course English subtitles.
The USA disc is very poor and I could only recommend it were there no other option (ie no Oz disc and you couldn't buy the French discs due to lack of subtitles).
The distributor's website www.accentfilm.com -not much on there sadly.
I see they're doing a special edition set too:

3/10 image for US and 8/10 for the Oz disc.
Aucun doute.
dvdcompare mentions that the Aussie disc is cropped at the top and bottom. is it still worth getting?

DVDCompare: "Transfer appears to be cropped from top and bottom."
Utter bullshit. Where's the technical DVDBeaver styled comparison? I don't like that site as people say any old thing and it's listed as gospel.
I can't see any image difference (except quality).

I'd do more if I had the time. I know Noé's films very well. The captions are perfectly framed (the ultimate test) as is the film in both versions.

I would assume that since this request was posted in the International section....the poster was interested in a non-R1 release....

understood, but since the OP didn't specify, and advice as where to get both the R1 and the R4 was already posted, i figured i'd give one more option...
