Does anyone own the My Winnipeg Book & DVD combo?

Im curious on the quality of the packaging and if it’s the legit film? I’m looking to purchase it this weekend online and was going to get the OOP DVD itself but i saw it comes in a book combo when surfing the web? Thanks

I’m not sure which package you’re referring to, but I do have both the DVD and the accompanying book. However, I bought them separately. And boy are they nice.

are two examples of the book and DVD package together

I only own the DVD, but remember a few things from when I was buying it. Many people did not like the packaging because in order to get the DVD out, you have to bend the book or something, and this could also cause damage to the disc. Not something I have experienced personally, but some stuff I read in reviews.

Thanks Ian. If that’s the case i’ll avoid the combo of it for now and buy the DVD now and the book used later on.

Yeah, never seen the book with the dvd, but the book is definitely worth your purchase. And the packaging for the DVD makes it a worthwhile separate purchase.

The cover art for the DVD alone is worth the purchase. :P

Savvy

Pretty much. Ledgeman is the greatest idea for a tv show I’ve ever heard.

hah, awesome. yeah i’ll just get them separately since that is what the autuers conciseness suggests!
