Region 0 Bunuel DVDs, worth $60?
 

Are these worth $60?

1 - Los Olvidados / Las Hurdes

2 - El / Ensayo de un Crimen (Criminal Live of Archibaldo de la Cruz)

both have subtitles? I'm thinking about buying them, but wanna make sure im not getting scammed and this is a good deal.

I have both (I hope you mean $60 for both--I spent about $30 apiece at MachiavelDVD.com) & am very happy with them. Good transfers. No English subs on the Las Hurdes short. There are reviews at DVD Beaver here and here.

Not great transfers, but certainly adequate and you couldn't pry these discs from my hands! I love 'em, particularly "EL", which I think ranks among Bunuel's best from the Mexican period. It's hard to really get "Las Hurdes", though, without understanding the arch "travelogue" narration--you really lose out here, but nonetheless that disc is definitely worth having for "Los Olvidados" alone (which, by the way, includes the alternate ending--fortunately never screened--among the extras).

I thought these were OOP. If you're a Bunuel fan, grab 'em if you can find 'em!!!

U said it..... ;)

...Yup! what the man said!...

. . . :o . . .

Ok, so now the seller is telling me that they "might be bootlegs" and giving me this run around about how he doesnt think they're the original OOP! and now I WANT THESE! I dont know if any of the ones on ebay are legit are not. Can someone gimme some help here? :)

Can't help you there, but in my experiance, many, MANY OOP DVDs on e-bay are bootlegs or misrepresented. I have stopped getting OOPs on e-bay because of being burnt in the past.

That's what I'm afraid of. After reading about them, I really really want them.
If anyone knows a reputable seller, lemme know, either here or email.

Thanks.

As I stated above, I bought both recently from MachiavelDVD.com (located in Canada). Both are now out-of-stock there. You might email Marc, the owner, and see if he'll be getting more in soon (he had copies of The Criminal Life of Archibaldo de la Cruz/El as recently as a week ago).

DVDGo used to stock these, but doesn't anymore.
