We checked it out yesterday. The "Blu-Ray DVD" is selling for about $23.
Apparently it was not yet on "Pay for View" on Direct TV ........
I would imagine that the movie "Zero Dark Thirty" with James Gandolfini in the role of Leon Panetta, will be shown pretty soon, now that he's deceased.

It's basically about the Navy Seal team in their hunt for Osama bin Laden.

James Gandolfini has apologised to US Defence Secretary Leon Panetta for wearing a questionable wig to portray him in new movie Zero Dark Thirty.

The Sopranos star plays Panetta, the former director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), in the gritty thriller, about the hunt for terrorist leader Osama bin Laden, but he expects the politician will not be impressed with his onscreen image.

The actor explains, "I sent a note to Leon saying, 'I'm very sorry about everything. The wig, everything. You're kind of like my father. You'll find something to be angry about.'"

Gandolfini's comments came during Tuesday's National Board of Review Awards in New York City, where he presented his Zero Dark Thirty director Kathryn Bigelow with a trophy.

He also told guests at the prizegiving that screenwriter Mark Boal told him Panetta wanted the actor to give him a phone call but joked that he "doesn't know how to get in touch... This is the head of the CIA."
