Blu-Ray Digibook Question


Can anyone that owns the Blu-Ray Digibook tell me if there are any interesting facts or bits of behind the scenes information revealed in the book part? If there are, what exactly are the facts?

Thank you

It says its printed on acid free paper.

Haha! Good one. Guess I asked for it. Made me laugh :). The reason I asked though was that I don't have the means to buy it, and was just curious if there was any behind the scenes information about the production/shooting (no pun intended) of the film.

Not really. I think it's pretty rare for digibooks to have any substantial content.

Like most of them, the Bonnie and Clyde digibook is mostly actor biogs and photos of movie posters; it does have a couple of "the cast remembers"-type articles by a bloke named Patrick Goldstein, from "The Times" (doesn't say which Times) and they're well enough written but mostly fan-magazine stuff — certainly nothing that adds anything much to your understanding or appreciation of the movie.

I've got quite a few digibooks, but I've stopped buying them — and I think the studios have largely stopped making them — because they really seem more like the studio decided to have a digibook, and then looked around for stuff to fill it with, rather than making a release into a digibook because they had material that would improve people's appreciation of the film. The Bonnie and Clyde digibook is no exception.

The film itself is great, and the disc has some interesting historical material on it that adds more to the film than anything in the digibook. My two cents' worth, anyway.



You might very well think that. I couldn't possibly comment.
