Seller's Description:
Daniel Olbrychski. NOTE: THIS IS A VIDEO. Ex-rental in plain black hard case. Original box, cut and flattened, will be included with order. Side label on tape is handwritten and there are three small store labels on the tape. Visual quality is poor, but I think it is not a fault of this particular copy but of the whole run.
