How far away are you from the Favelas? This is where superCalo lives and he can get you anything you want for a price. All I know he is dishwasher and from Somalia originally.
Sorry i can't help more. Will PM him but he is on vacation in Vegas for uFc 189 so be patient.

They sell the original DVD's on used stores, but i never found that one.:)

Just saw this yesterday and was very disappointed. When you have a "gangster" movie with Brad Pitt, Ray Liotta and James Gandolfini your expectations are higher than usual. Honestly I can't remember a movie that had this much potential be such a let down.
Maybe one of the worst scripts I can remember in a long time. The dialogue was not only pointless having nothing to do with the plot but was boring. I've read Canuckster posts that were more entertaining.
Definitely tried to pay homage to Quentin Tarrantino and Guy Ritchie films but fails miserably in that department.
The only saving grace is brilliant art direction and fine cinematography. They did a good job creating a gritty decaying suburban landscape of Boston. They have some interesting slow motion Matrix style execution scenes but even these are not as good as they could have been.
An example was the card game robbery that while intense leaves you "just asking questions" at the end.
There also is a political and philosophical message interjected throughout the movie with Obama speeches that is supposed to be metaphor for the movie but just comes across as propaganda at times for the director. Honestly it reminds of the pseudo intellectual drivel I had to read on a daily basis at confirmationbias.com
Still Brad Pitt does an excellent job with what he had to work with which isn't the first time he did a good acting job in a bad movie.
The kind of movie that is nothing but background noise while you do something else. I'm only giving this 5/10.
