Have located the film "Einstein's Universe." It is a 2-hour film produced by the BBC in 1979 and is distributed in 16mm and NTSC VHS formats by: Corinth Films, 34 Gansevoort, New York, NY 10014, Tel. 800-221-4720
Purchase price is a hefty $250.00, and rental price is $175.00 for a one-time showing. Unfortunately, unless it is available from some other source, such as the BBC, it shall remain largely inaccessible for home viewing by the general public.

Annotation: 

Not presenting any original material of its own, this site is a portal for all things related to Albert Einstein. The long list of links includes over 30 references to online material on Einstein's life and work. There are also links to photographs, primary materials, quotations of and by Einstein. In addition, there are links to sites explaining Einstein's complicated physics; some of these sites are designed for advanced science students only, while others are designed for a general audience. Links to dozens of other sites on Einstein, from serious to humorous, round out the site.
