what is the font...

Used in the movie for the title/end credits?
I know the DVD package used Elegance, but it's not the same...

well i went down my font list in microsoft word...if its there, im not seeing it

i used "Bill Murray" in the ending credits to compare...there are some distinguishable features, including the "y" (the tail is not curved its straight, most fonts have a curved tail) and the "a" (most fonts have a regular a, i dunno how to exactly describe it), and also the dot on the "i" is not at the level with the top tip of the "l"s...

a couple that come close are Apple LiGothic Medium (its skinny enough, and the "y" is correct, but the 'a' is not) and arial narrow (the 'y' isn't correct and the dot on the "i" isn't right)

tell me if you find the font...also, "elegance", is that font in word?

happy searching

In case you're looking to find it elsewhere, a quick google search for the font filename should get you started.
