Could someone help with playing encrypted DVDs on Lenny?

Do you have libdvdcss installed?

Thanks for the replies.  I don't have libdvdcss installed.  But now
I'm confused.  I thought I shouldn't need libdvdcss if my drive's
region code is set correctly, which it is now -- I have a region 5 DVD
in a region 5 player.

According to its authors, libdvdcss is "designed for accessing DVDs
like a block device without having to bother about the decryption."  I
don't want to do that; I just want to decrypt what I should be able to
decrypt.

Or am I getting things wrong here?

Yes. The region setting is separate and distinct from whether or not the DVD is encrypted.
