Any links to essential info on the transfer, features and all that jazz? I've been fairly happy with the import for the last few years....but would love a domestic upgrade.

This is a classic and will always be a personal fave.

Yeah, happy with my 4 year-old Danish DVD too.

Now, if the US release had the longer version I'd consider buying it!

I started doing an alternate DVD cover for my Danish The Driver. Never finished it but the main part of it is here



I hope the studio don't dumb this down and call it "Driver" missing out the The.

Fascinating - I wasn't even aware an alternate version existed!
