The Red Baron

[XJRTim]

Just wondering if any of you saw a programme on The History Channel not too long back about The Red Baron, I believe it was called, "Who killed the Red Baron"?



Has anyone got it on DVD? I am also looking for another title but I am not too sure whether it's any good, I think it's called, "Von Richthofen and Brown".



I am currently doing some research on the WW1 fighter ace with my son, and the new film is due for release in April, but I was hoping that they wouldn't credit Arthur "Roy" Brwn with the kill, because this will surely be misleading to a lot of people...!!



Please help us find these titles.



Thanks for looking.

Roger Corman filmed "THE RED BARON" or "VON RICHTHOFEN AND BROWN" 1971 in Irland. Same place and same aircraft as used in "THE BLUE MAX" 1966 and "DARLING LILI" 1970. You can buy all three DVD's from Amazon.co.uk for about £10.00p. I'v got "THE RED BARON" on VHS in fullscreen but the DVD is in 1.85.1 widescreen so I think it's time I updated too.

[Amethyst_Isle]

Have you checked if it can then ?

[XJRTim]

Hmmm, forgive me but I don't know how to and I don't have any Region 1 discs to check it. And it's only a cheapo DVD Recorder (Technika) from Tesco....
