Just curious to know whether the included 'book' is in fact a little booklet or an actual full-fledged book?

Any info is appreciated.

Judging by the pictures at DVDAnswers (http://www.dvdanswers.com/index.php?c=4207&s=1) it looks like it's this book (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0851709680/) which is listed at 96 pages. Seems it's pretty substantial.

Shit. Good news and bad.

The Good News: Yes, the book is really good (as are most in the BFI series).

The Bad News: I already own it. :(

Is it a screenplay? The original story? Or just a book about the movie?

It's what's behind door #3.

The BFI series (broken up into 2 subseries -- for 'classic' films and 'modern classics') consists of essays/interviews/analysis about great films.

It's a really good book, and is actually a pretty decent deal compared to the standard edition. Adding a CD and this book to the standard set is definitely worth the extra $$ for anyone who is interested in that sort of thing.

Why doesn't it come with a pair of newly-polished shoes. :(
