Anyone get the DVD yet?
I just got it today, but I havent watched it yet.
I did check out the "Tribute to Ismail Merchant" featurette which was quite nice, with archival interview clips from Merchant himself and others.
As for the movie, i know DVDtalk gave it a quite nice review.

Still in the middle of the film and its quite gorgeous,
a Casablanca touch to the film, as it says on the cover.
The only problem so far I have is Sony's subtitles.
You know they use that awful bright yellow.
When the characters are speaking non-English languages,
the subtitles are at the TOP of the screen.
Why did they choose to do that? A strange decision.......
in addition:
DO NOT READ THE BACK OF THE BOX IF YOU HAVENT SEEN THE FILM
The box actually gives away the plot, the climax, AND THE ENDING!!!!!
