In the same nether region as his tracks for Prince of the City (particularly galling, as I remember a Warner HTF chat where Lumet's said to have recorded one), The Hill, Serpico, and (if I remember the specs right) BtDKYD, to name just a few of his better movies without commentaries.Gigi M. wrote:Where's Lumet's commentary?
He could be like Altman and not be able to keep up with the films anymore (the Criterion blog posting following Altman's death elaborates). I'd still like to hear him, though; he's not tops in the commentary game, but I've always enjoyed hearing what he has to say.

Say, that is a very handsome package. Almost too good to be true. Maybe MGM/Fox have finally gotten their act together.Lino wrote:Excellent artwork.

Normally I would agree, but I think most of UA's 1950's posters looked cheap and ugly, and 12 ANGRY MEN is a prime example of UA art at its dullest. I prefer the graphic simplicity of the new R1 DVD cover.OliverB wrote:I think it looks like crap.. As always, the original poster art is the way to go:

Perhaps if it were a yellow background instead of red and without the ugly 50th Anniversary banner at the very bottom in the contrasting silver-metallic color which looks horrible graphically. And if it were printed on a digipak I'm sure it'd be an improvement. But generally I'll always prefer the original poster artwork simply for what it represents.
