Oscar Screener Leak Traced

Posted by michael on from the dumpster-diving dept.

EvilLiberalGuy writes "CNN has an article about a leak of a screener copy of 'Something's Gotta Give'. They are reporting that 'visible and hidden markings on the videocassette copy on the Internet identify it as the one sent to Carmine Caridi, a film and television actor'. Apparently this didn't stop the leak from happening in this case, but will it result in actions against Caridi and make others think twice before leaking films to the net?"

    No, I am guessing your stupid. Since you described every other "format" and forgot "screener". Like the article said a screener is a tape or DVD which is sent to an Academy member.
