Title: Rent don't buy - Can't justify the DVD purchase
Review: If you just like collecting DVDs, then ignore my advise. I buy DVDs to learn more about the movie as well as have an excellent copy. This is a must see movie! I highly recommend it to any Martin Scorsese and, of course, Dali Lama fan. A very moving picture where the story is basically a piece of history. Unfortunately, there is nothing added to the DVD version other than a trailer. I was hoping for a director's commentary (I like to hear Mr. Scorsese talk about his pictures) or a behind the scenes piece to make the purchase of the DVD more justifiable. The quality of the transfer is excellent. I recommend renting the DVD/VHS and hope that a Special Edition of this movie with more additions comes out in the future. I'll watch my copy and probably buy the new release...
