More DVD news: the Criterion Collection has announced that it will release a special edition<\/a> of Terrence Malick\u2019s The New World<\/a><\/i> this summer that includes all three versions of the film in a single four-disc set \u2014 and they will all be in high definition, too, which I believe is a first for the two theatrical versions of the film.<\/p>\n
The three versions of the film are:<\/p>\n
\n
the 150-minute version that was shown to critics and given an Oscar-qualifying limited release in December 2005\n<\/li>
the 135-minute version that got a wide release<\/a> in January 2006\n<\/li>
the 172-minute version that was released on DVD<\/a> in October 2008<\/li><\/ul>\n
The Criterion edition will also include:<\/p>\n
\n
Making \u201cThe New World\u201d<\/i>, a documentary shot during the production of the film in 2004, directed and edited by Austin Jack Lynch (previously available on the DVD edition of the 135-minute version of the film released in 2006)\n<\/li>
New interviews with actors Colin Farrell and Q\u2019orianka Kilcher\n<\/li>
A new program about the making of the film, featuring interviews with producer Sarah Green, production designer Jack Fisk, and costume designer Jacqueline West\n<\/li>
A new program about the process of cutting The New World<\/i> and its various versions, featuring interviews with editors Hank Corwin, Saar Klein, and Mark Yoshikawa\n<\/li>
Trailers\n<\/li>
A book featuring an essay by film scholar Tom Gunning, a 2006 interview with Lubezki from American Cinematographer<\/i>, and a selection of materials that inspired the production<\/li><\/ul>\nI got to take part in roundtable interviews with Q\u2019orianka Kilcher, Christian Bale, Wes Studi and producer Sarah Green when the film first came out, way back in December 2005. You can read my junket report here<\/a>, and some \u201cbonus quotes\u201d here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
