Why can't we buy region 2 DVD Lady Sings the Blues?

The Region 2 DVD of "Lady Sings the Blues" may not be available for purchase due to licensing issues or distribution rights that limit its release in certain regions. Additionally, the film may not have been re-released in that format since its initial launch, making it difficult to find. Collectors and fans often rely on imports or alternative formats, such as Blu-ray or digital streaming, to access the film.
