Danton

For those of you who are fans of Andrzej Wajda's film, "Danton," or have never had the chance to see it but would like to, it will be released on DVD next week, March 31, by Criterion Collection (in region 1 USA and Canada format).  It will be available on Amazon.com for about $35.00.  Devoted fans of the film cite its charms as: Saint-Just wearing eye make-up! Camille calling Robespierre a prostitute! and Gerard Depardieu in the title role! This posting, however, is not intended as an endorsment of the movie for either its entertainment value or its historical accuracy. Viewer discretion is advised.

yes - though the British one doesn't have any extras and the new dvd does....damn it...it's a 2 disc one...but expensive for a dvd and gosh the cover picture of the new one is horrible! Looks like the sort of thing you get on some sort of 'feminine' bathroom product.
