Title: A Great Value For The Price
Review: Despite the absence of "Hearts Of Darkness" (which I suspect is still tied up in the legal morass that has kept it out-of-print for the last decade), "The Complete Dossier" is a great value for the price. Coppola's commentary is entertaining and filled with little insights you won't hear elsewhere. The extras are not hugely in-depth, but you get more than you usually would with a nearly 30-year-old film. I found the behind-the-scenes montage used to accompany Brando's 17-minute reading of "The Hollow Men" to be quite creatively done. Finally, there is another plus to both films being split over two discs apart from the quality image issue: it's an easy way to compare the subtle editing differences in specific scenes between the 1979 and 2001 releases.
Is the review positive or negative?
