The Film: A modern classic, you chould already have seen this on the big screen. If you haven't the DVD is a complete package that provides the full widescreen release and plenty of background and making of information. The journey of Kevin Spacey's character to self knowledge, respect and - as we're told in the first seconds of the film - death. Funny, dark and worthy of repeat viewings.
The DVD: Not only the film, but also a complete directors commentary with many snippets of inside info on cut scenes, rewrites and plot changes. Also the cinema trailers, short 'making of' documentary and stroyboards.
Five Stars all the way!
