My Own Private Idaho - Criterion
Straight from their webpage...
Conversation with Gus Vant Sant and Todd Haynes to Appear on My Own Private Idaho
A wide-ranging new audio conversation between director Gus Van Sant and acclaimed filmmaker Todd Haynes (Safe, Velvet Goldmine, Far From Heaven) and will be included on Criterion’s upcoming release of My Own Private Idaho. Also included on this special edition two-disc set will be a new documentary on the making of the film, featuring interviews with key crew members, and many additional supplemental features. Look for My Own Private Idaho in early 2005.

I have that. It was on DVD. Bought mine from Tower.
Also, Araki's Totally F***ed Up [not my censorsing] was due a December Region 4 Australia release. Not sure now, though. Excellent DVD of Nowhere here
Not a big fan of My Own Private Idaho, but I like Van Sant, so will buy it for another look.

You think in the commentary Gus will apologize for getting River Phoenix hooked on drugs?

I have this one on VHS and haven't been able to bring myself to play it since I played my first DVD.
One of my favorite River Phoenix movies and I'll be one of the first to pick this up. Not only is the movie coming to DVD, but a Criterion release....so much talent, cut short

Yeah, Gus should apologize since he tied a rope around River's neck, strapped him to a chair and MADE HIM take drugs until he died. River Phoenix was a very talented actor and his death was a complete and utter waste, however, 23 years old at the time of his death makes him an adult that gets to take responsibility for his own actions -- including getting hooked on drugs and then dying.

Yeah, I know. I was just being sarcastic. However, River did start doing drugs as "research" for his role in this movie. Beforehand, he was known as being a clean-cut goodie two-shoes.

What is it with these actors getting too into their roles? River doing drugs, Winona shoplifting-jeez, I thought Dustin Hoffman staying up for 3 days was bad enough.
