Coppola is always good value for this who like serious, thoughtful comment and this is no exception. He's not going to have you rolling in the aisles but then neither is THE CONVERSATION, which I'd rank as his only second to the first two GODFATHER movies in his body of work.

Details, details, details. It's amazing how rich Coppola's memory of this movie is considering how long after it was made he recorded the commentary. Francis lets you in on how the theme of the film invades even the smallest of minutia including set, costume or even a simple look by Hackman. Coppola has an easy intelligence and spending a few hours with him in your ear is not a chore. Besides his homage to Hitchcock, who knew Tennessee Williams was such an early influence? This is the type of film he thought he'd be making for the rest of his life. Interesting stuff.

Typically thoughtful commentary from Coppola that is great for fans or film students. He talks a lot about how the use of the unmoving, dead camera in this film - it is a passive eavesdropper.

Murch is a very intelligent man who thinks very deeply about the crafts of both editing and sound, and this is a suitably interesting commentary track for a film which exploits these skills to the full.
It's technical for the most part but never impenetrable and fans of this particular film - which is relatively high brow anyway - should find it absorbing.
