Watching Journey's End

too_much_in_the_sun Apologies for being absent lately; this is my very last week of college and I've been... busy.
You get two posts today, as an apology for none yesterday! Here's the first; the second a little later today.
Journey's End is not an easy film to watch, in the perfectly literal sense that it's difficult to find. It's never been officially released on DVD, though I might risk the eight bucks for this dubious home-made version. Trying to find out who might own a print, and what they might be doing with it, is a rabbit-hole of internet scuttlebutt (this anonymous commenter passes on a rumor that the British Film Institute had a print at one point, but no longer does).
There is one thing: this YouTube video.
Though it's been reuploaded a couple times by other users, this is probably the best copy of this movie you're going to find. (There's another version that apparently stops halfway through and then restarts, leading to a run-time of almost 3 hours.) The quality is awful and there are a few clear defects in this copy, but it's a testament to the quality of this movie that it's still compelling.
So if you miss watching videos in 480p, you're in the right place.
