You can find it available to rent, but only in 480p - it doesn't appear to have ever made the leap to HD, even though there ought to be an available film print to scan (The Library of Congress even has one preserved). Take Slacker, a progenitor of indie cinema that kicked off Richard Linklater's career.

One movie I've wanted to rewatch for years, Chungking Express, is only available on DVD and Blu-ray, and the Blu-ray discs are out of print and currently selling used on Amazon for over $100. But often enough I find that not to be true, and with some notable titles, too. ![]() You'd think that streaming and digital distribution in general would mean that basically every movie ever made should be available online. ![]()
