"Gnomes" review

Steven HSeptember 9, 2011

I saw this short film when I was 16 y/o, 1984 and for that period it was a wholsome movie, without the violence shown in the films and cartoons of today 2011. Would love to buy this dvd if anyone knows when/if the swedish/norwegian distributer "CCV", or other distributer is going to release the movie in english.

I thoroughly enjoyed this animated movie of 1980 which I had first seen in 1982 when I was 16 y/o, I miss the days when movies were more creative in script and less violent with realistic CGI effects. I would appreciate it if anybody could tell me when and if this movie will be released in english on DVD format, I have heard that a Swedish/norwegian distributer named "CCV" may release the DVD early December 2011.
