Opening/Closing to Too Young To Die?: A True Story (1996 UK VHS)

This video was taken during the Summer of 2024, when we temporarily had a TV/VCR and a series of VHS tapes, before it got sold off to someone. Unfortunately I forgot to record the other tapes’ openings I found in the meantime; but fortunately I’ve only managed to film this one.

The tape in question is from one of those obscure British video distributors called Odyssey, with quite a cheap, but interesting trailer reel that lasts a good 10+ minutes of the tape (I’ve heard some are 20+ minutes, wow!), and includes the usual closing you’d expect: an anticlimactic one. The film itself, is a TV movie starring Brad Pitt. No, that isn’t a joke - a younger… him is part of the movie. I haven’t fully watched it myself, but have reacted to this opening with a few other friends of mine in a stream back then.

For now, this’ll have to be the only VHS-related video; unless I gather bits from said stream and compile it together. I might do more in the future if I’d eventually get a VCR (in fact, there’s one in the attic along with some blank tapes I once ordered, as I wanted to put my own projects on that), and the rest will be all DVD/Blu-Ray related. This is a sign welcoming you to my physical media collection and enthusiasm.
