And with the proviso that I co-produced it so am far from unbiased, it's a pretty phenomenal disc - the 4K restoration looks eye-poppingly gorgeous, and the Arthur Penn and James Fox interviews (each around 25 mins) are two of the meatiest I can recall on a recent release. Penn comes courtesy of the raw footage from Paul Joyce's doc Marlon Brando: The Wild One (some of which also ended up on Arrow's One-Eyed Jacks, although there's no content overlap), while Fox is interviewed by his son-in-law Richard Ayoade, who is pretty much perfect: he's clearly done the necessary homework with unnerving thoroughness, but there's also a wonderfully easy rapport with a man he's been related to by marriage for a decade.
And we also licensed the Twilight Time extras: commentary, isolated John Barry score, and so on. | Sold then sir.
