You are required
to purcahse the films we watch.
They
can be VERY inexpensively purchased on E-Bay in European formats (which
will
play on computers
but NOT on DVD players, which are not so equipped).
The
URL's below are from the only
purveyer selling all of the films. They are fairly priced.
You may check
this on-line.

Setting
up Cyrillic on your computer
For WINDOWS
If you are using XP, go to
>SETTINGS, >CONTROL PANEL, >REGIONAL and LANGUAGE
OPTIONS. In the drop-down menu go to >LANGUAGE and click
DETAILS. Click >ADD. In the language list find >RUSSIAN and
click >OK. When the panel closes, click OK again. You
have Cyrillic using the Russian keyboard. The screen TRAY
will now show an EN or RU. Change the language by clicking in the
tray or toggle with SHIFT +
ALT. This will give you
the standard RUSSIAN keyboard.
Should you wish to use the so-called
phonetic keyboard, download the ASDF PHONETIC keyboard @ http://tlt.its.psu.edu/suggestions/international/bylanguage/russian.html
Clear
directions are given on this page.
Although
MAC information is
listed below, the bottom of this page also contains information for
phonetic keyboards in the MAC operating system.
The
following
web site contains down loadable fonts and keyboard drivers if you are
using something other than XP. There
are
TWO standard Russian keyboards. I recommend neither, but rather
the
so-called "phonetic" or "homophonic" keyboard. In this
layout, most
Russian letters are found where their English equivalents would
be.
This speeds typing.
