I watched this film a few years ago. It really captivated me, and left a lasting impression.
It has such a unique atmosphere to it. The setting is dark, sinister, and very hypnotic. This transfixion is created by a fusion of brilliant cinematography, interesting story, and intense music. The whole experience is utterly compelling.
I've just found out, it isn't on dvd. ... Michael Mann's original version was 3hours long. The studio were said to be very negative regarding the project- and wanted it cut to 1hr 30mins ft: ... They also didn't commit enough financial resources to the project.
So, Paramount aren't eager to deliver a dvd. There has been one rumoured- I read it was supposed to be out now. Some people are saying it may be a deluxe version, a directors cut etc...
I just hope it does get a dvd release. If anyone has information, please discuss.
Cheers!
