The saga of the Black Knight DVD. 

The Black Knight Alan Ladd's Biggest adventure.

Due to its Stonehenge connection, this movie has been on my watch list for a while now. When I saw one pop up on eBay I decided to get a copy for my collection. I had intended on referencing the Stonehenge connection (and movie set) used in this film as part of a future mutterings on the subject.

Alas the copy I purchased turned out to be just that a copy and I found myself back in the market for an original/commercial copy.

I provide here a record of what I have received, and my exploits in attempting to get a legitimate copy for my collection. I use these pictures and scans as examples for what to look for in identifying bootleg DVD's such as this one.

As it turns out the film "Black Knight 1954" is part of the TCM holdings and has NOT been made available on DVD yet.

What I did find on the TCM website, much to my enjoyment was the Stonehenge clip, along with several other notable clips, were free to watch on the TCM website.
