The region coding works on PCs based on the IP address, there are programmes that can be downlaoded that effectively mutates your IP address allowing open region, so you could watch BBC Iplayer in the USA same as we could watch the US networks version of there players here in the UK. Go online and see whats out there, cheers
PS Forgot to say, have watched the dcoumentary and its very good to dee how the film camera was 'reduced' in size to allow hand held documentary film making, expecially impressive and emotive is the 80 second odd handheld following JFK showcasing visually his popularity.
