Reverse Clockwork Orange
Update: Couldn't wait. Bought the DVD at Amazon UK. This will end up like Porco Rosso, biography of Fidel Castro, the original British version of "Traffick" and other films that are curiously not available.
Stanley Kubrick's film "Clockwork Orange" was banned in Britain (and may still be) and now Ken Loach's film "The Wind that Shakes the Barley" may be banned (oh, sorry, you can't say that...the word is "raised an eyebrow") in the US. You see, it concerns revolution and terrorists --the Irish.
The US release date was supposedly November 6th, but I haven't seen a trace of the film.

I've been anxiously awaiting that film's release date as well...fortunately, it looks like it'll finally be released for us Yankees sometime next March
Thanks for bringing this movie to my attention. Definitely keep an eye out for it.
Kubrick blocked video release of CO. became available after his death.
John Savidant who played a part in it, and also starred for years in the UK soap Coronation Street died 2 months ago.
I'm anxiously awaiting this release too, can't wait for another film about the 'Troubles"
