Agreed. I thought Midway suffered badly from having a stereotypical soap opera plot and two fictional leading characters superimposed on an actual event that was more than dramatic enough without any fictional "improvements". Talk about gilding the lily. And the less said about the recent Pearl...
Well, I do give a rat's ass about extras. :) A commentary track by Coppolla would certainly be enough to get me to double dip if the price is right. I'm sure someone in my family who mostly rents DVDs would be delighted to get my old copy of Patton. Regards, Joe
