Color me confused. [The Last Waltz](http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00003CXB1/qid=1074608831/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/002-5877948-0516816?v=glance&s=dvd) is on DVD. A special 25th anniversary release. Am I getting whooshed here? ---

I’m so glad you posted that **Algernon**. I was going to do exactly the same but was convinced there was a joke in there somewhere and I was missing it. That DVD is great BTW bought it last week for €8 on sale. ---

You are actually looking for [The Last Polka](http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/6302034655/104-4983802-6679143?v=glance), which is only available on VHS. The Last Waltz is entirely different. (The Last Polka is partly a spoof of The Last Waltz. At least the title is.) ---

You’re welcome, **Quasi**. If I have made even one person feel stupid, the day has not been wasted. 🙂
