Never got a chance to catch this in the theater...am looking forward to buying it though, if only because of the director.

Josh,

How hard is it to list where you got this info (which, btw, is from DVDAnswers.com)? This has to be the third or fourth time this week you've listed DVD specs without quoting a site.

I'm not trying to berate you; I'd just like to know what source you're getting this info from, and see if it's from one of the more reliable sites. In addition, it'd be nice to give the site proper credit.

Back onto the subject: while I wasn't a huge fan of the film, this sure does sound like an excellent set--especially the "Words and Music of Cold Mountain" feature. If Elvis Costello (who co-wrote one of the songs for the soundtrack) is on there, this DVD is definitely mine.

Hey, sorry about that. I usually don't list sources (it wasnt dvdanswers or dvdtimes, but both had the specs listed about the same time.) I receive specs most of the time through people who get the info about the releases just after they come out. Its usually around the time they are posted on numerous sites (dvdanswers for example). If i had to quote a source, it would be an indivudal or indivduals. But if I do get them fro ma site, I will certainly quote them in the future.
