Perhaps if you found the film "Unbearable," you will not be quite so enthused for this commentary either. For this fan, however, the track is quite informative. Especially interesting is the information from famed editor Walter Murch. For some reason editors are often ignored during the process, and I can't understand why. For those of you with an eye for the technical process of film, look no further than Murch's comments. Overall, the others offer some decent insight as well.
