When I'm in Madrid I always do lots of shopping for video films and book. Usually I find all that I need at FNAC for films and Casa del Libro for books. Has anyone any idea where I can find these items somewhere else besides the places I go. The video films I require are Goya winners , classics of literature such as Lorca's La Casa de Bernarda Alba, and films of a certain standard as well as greats from el cine espa�ol, such as Tristana, Calle Mayor, Benvenido Mr Marshall, films from the great directors such as Trueba, Almodovar, Chavarri, Bu�uel, Bigas Luna and tens of other greats. I would appreciate if someone gave me a few ideas, on where to shop for such goods, and...thanks.

Hi Chiara, well, you should go downstairs in Madrid Rock the next time you are in Madrid They have loads of videos and although most are music related, you can also find the award winners and the spanish classics there. Your best bet is their store on "Gran V�a", it is located on the south side of the street right in front of the metro entrance and almost on the corner of "calle montera" (would be if it were not for McDonalds). Hoe you find what you need, their prices are pretty good and even though Fnac guarantees the "best price", Madrid Rock is usually a bit cheaper.
hasta luego...jer.
