Title: Poor value, not much additional material
Product review: This movie is not all that it is hyped up to be. The story-telling of the movie is poor, and the characters are not well-developed. Its only strength is in the music and the costume drama.Additionally, this 2-disc set is unnecessarily expensive and the second disc does not have much material on it. Other than the 48 minute documentary on early music and viola da gamba players, there is less than 20 minutes of additional material related to this film.The making-of-featurette consists of Gerard Depardieu laughing at inside jokes and getting make-up applied to his face in 10 minutes of home-movie quality footage. There is a 60-second TV interview clip with the director, a 5-minute TV interview which includes a long clip from the movie itself (so it is really only about 60 seconds of new material), a 2-minute TV clip of viola da gamba playing, and the original movie trailer.By no means worthy of a second disc.
