I really want to watch this documentary. It's called "American Tongues", and it catalogues a bunch of different pockets of unusual English dialects around the country. Here are a couple of clips of it that exist on Youtube:

Tangier, VA
Cajun

It looks like I can get it in this (interesting-looking) collection on Amazon for $225, or for $100 less on eBay. [livejournal.com profile] spike discovered that American Tongues on its own is rentable for $85.

...but now I'm out of ideas, and I'm not paying $85. Does anyone have a clever way of helping me see this thing? University libraries? The copy you already have sitting on your shelf?
