Good Night and Good Luck (R1) in March
Warner Home Video have announced the Region 1 DVD release of Good Night and Good Luck for 14th March 2006 priced at $28.98 SRP. "Good Night, And, Good Luck." takes place during the early days of broadcast journalism in 1950's America. It chronicles the real-life conflict between television newsman Edward R. Murrow and Senator Joseph McCarthy and the House Un-American Activities Committee. With a desire to report the facts and enlighten the public, Murrow, and his dedicated staff - headed by his producer Fred Friendly and Joe Wershba in the CBS newsroom - defy corporate and sponsorship pressures to examine the lies and scaremongering tactics perpetrated by McCarthy during his communist 'witch-hunts'. A very public feud develops when the Senator responds by accusing the anchor of being a communist. In this climate of fear and reprisal, the CBS crew carries on and their tenacity will prove historic and monumental.
George Clooney directs and stars alongside a cast that includes Patricia Clarkson, Jeff Daniels, David Strathairn, Frank Langella, Robert Downey, Jr. and Tate Donovan.
Features include:
1.85:1 Anamorphic Widescreen
English DD5.1 Surround
English, French & Spanish subtitles
Audio commentary with George Clooney and Grant Heslov

maybe the dvd gods will do us all a favor and re-release confessions of a dangerous mind with the original cover art as well... i have purposefully not bought that because the cover art was so bad.

I plan on seeing this tomorrow. There's a small local theater nearby that only gets limited release films. They also have The Squid and the Whale. Sounds like a nice double feature...
