neat documentary

Post by Johnnyreb »

If you have netflix, I saw a neat documentary the other night.

Chuck Norris vs. Communism

It is about the black market in western movies in Romania is the last years of the communist regime and man who was the center of it and the woman who did most of the translating, over 3000 movies. Well worth the time.

When the guy, Zamfir, got started he was copying overdubbed VHS tapes on 3 VCRs, when he ended it and sold the equipment in 92, he was using 360 VCRs.
