Description
Stars Paul Giamatti and Thomas Haden Church have an absolute blast on their commentary track, gleefully ripping themselves, fawning over “La Madsen,” and recalling “that bad fake wine we had to drink a lot of.” Director Alexander Payne dismisses the seven deleted scenes (about 17 minutes total) as “meager offerings,” and it’s true that there are no gems. But even better than the scenes themselves might be Payne’s text introductions, which offer insight into his editing process. Each scene is surrounded by brief bits from the finished film to provide context, which should be done more often. The 6-minute making-of featurette is better than most because it spends less time on self-promotion and plot summary. –David Horiuchi
