The ‘On Location’ extra is just a reel of spare video that someone managed to take on set – those of you familiar with FilmFour discs will know that this is not a particularly useful extra as it is mostly without sound, but is at least here for completion’s sake. Sadly it’s only 7 minutes long, but at least it’s not a Hollywood fluff piece. Also on the disc is a short featurette that tells us a little more about the making of the movie. This is a great bonus for the visually impaired, but I found that it was also great to listen to whilst watching, and plays very much like a book read aloud. Basically it’s the dialogue, but with a narrator describing the on-screen action. ![]() This is the first time I’ve seen this kind of extra. ![]() Another audio track – ‘audio description’ – is available. But even though he leaves long silences in his commentary, as a whole this is one of the better ones I have listened to. This commentary is informative, although Davies only seems to be prompted by a start of a scene, and so is a bit quiet. ![]() He is very enthusiastic about his film, and often goes into detail about the shooting, the editing and other such anecdotes. First up is the director’s commentary by Terence Davies. Features FilmFour/VCI have including a superb range of extras to go with the movie. ![]()
