Several years ago a tv show called Night Flight did a profile of Lou Reed & played a video for My Name Is Mok. It was fantastic & almost played as a trailer for the film. I think it was an alternate version of the song than is in the movie. I really hope it is included in the set. I would buy it just for that.

I've been sent a few recent reviews that indicate the set will be in full frame only but they must not have received the actual DVD set coming out since it was clearly in widescreen when I watched it recently. I just wanted to warn people about reviews that are circulating with misinformation. Thanks for sending them to me though (I got fussed at for providing "different" information than another website). Just another week for general release! Yay!
