New on DVD/Blu-Ray - BIUTIFUL

Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu's profound portrait of a conflicted man, played by Javier Bardem, gets a DVD/Blu-Ray release. Nominated for two Academy Awards, including Best Foreign Picture and Best Leading Actor, the film is ponderous and a bit overlong (almost 2 1/2 hours), but through Bardem's confident, sensitive performance, it finds the right way to the audience's heart. Not exactly Inarritu's best, but certainly an improvement over his uneven and self-important "Babel", and definitely a significant and thought-provoking film. Available on DVD and Blu-Ray with some basic Special Features.


DVD Special Features :

  • Director's Flip Notes - Making Of (22 min)
  • Three Actor Interviews : Javier Bardem, Marciel Alvarez, Eduard Fernandez
  • Trailers : "Biutiful", "Rabbit Hole", "Winter's Bone", "The Conspirator","Everything Must Go"
  • Biutiful Crew (4 min)

Blu-Ray Special Features :
  • [same as the DVD]
  • Interactive Bookmarking Function
