DVDs with Cinematography featurettes/documentaries?

I'm trying to find any DVDs that have special features dedicated to the film's cinematography, especially lighting. I've found a few that give the director of photography a commentary track, which is cool. But I'm specifically looking for featurettes or mini-documentaries that discuss the lighting and perhaps show a bit of the behind-the-scenes setups that go into achieving those effects. I'm interested in any genre, but I'd really like to find some that deal with horror, noir, or any darker-looking movies. It could be b&w or color, Hollywood or indie, etc.

Do any discs have something like this?

In the Mouth of Madness has a commentary with John Carpenter and his DP Gary Kibbe.

I'm sure theres other commentaries/documentaries about the DP and lighting and such, but can't think of any right off hand.

Subscribe to American Cinematographer. It'll be the best source of info you'll find on this subject for a particular movie.

Check out the excellent documentary about cinematography titled VISIONS OF LIGHT, which has now been released on DVD.
