RE: The Hamburg Cell. I recently saw a DVD copy, in a commercial container box; it was last Thursday (4/27). However, I was in a foreign country. The owner of the box unfortunately was not present to ask about the source of the DVD. I had no idea at the time about the unavailability here in US, or I would have pressed the subject. Cheers, Richard

I have the DVD. I can't beleive i paid money for this over simplified rendition of a very complex moment in modern history. You can probably order on line very easily.

Are you talking about the same film? "The Hamburg Cell" had nothing to do with the History Channel and there's nothing "oversimplified" about the Channel Four/HBO film. It's a very meticulous, well-researched, amost plodding docudrama. Fictionalized out of necessity, but based on the best facts available. The DVD hasn't been released in the US and isn't on Amazon UK either.

"The Hamburg Cell" directed by Antonia Bird, originally aired on Channel 4 in the UK and on HBO in the U.S., will be released on DVD on November 14, 2006 by Acorn Media.
