I'd be perfectly happy to get one with English subs, really. If the only thing we get is edited, getting an unedited version will depend on who puts it up. Someone will probably do it with the Spanish dub and English subs way sooner than anyone puts up a restored version in English. Either way, I'll still pay for a DVD when it comes out.

I'll shell out the $$ to see it if I can just to show support for it, or buy the DVD when available, but I'm still hunting a pirated copy. Even though it has US distribution now, none of our local theaters are expecting to get it. The one indie theater we have says if they do, it may be an edited version. If the US release is edited, somebody will at least do a fan sub. Been checking BTs for subs – nothing so far.

I have a few friends who grew up with far less Christianity foisted on me than I had, and they still can't really see the allegory any further than Aslan's lif - self-sacrifice - rebirth, which is a common enough mythology, on its own.

If only because Gore Vidal is a genius. I, too, second this motion for a _Julian_ film. If only because Gore Vidal is a genius.
