Rogue's Review:

The New DVD (2005) Release, with Irons' commentary, is SUPERB

If you're into this movie, originally released in 1988, and even more importantly, if you are a fan of Jeremy Irons, you need to get your hands on the newly-released DVD version of Dead Ringers, which features, among other things, a stunning commentary by Irons himself, where he talks about the challenges of successfully creating the illusion of twins, his feelings about the movie in general, his feelings about working with Cronenberg and Bujold, the subtle shifts in energy he employs in making Beverly and Elly different, the musical score, the importance of the camera man in the film process, the thrill of doing scenes that include both drama and humor (like the 'separation' scene near the end), and much more.

This is an eloquent, sublime, supremely intelligent and satisfying commentary, well worth the price of the DVD in itself. Also includes a very funny interactive psychological profiling feature, brilliantly executed as well. (8 out of 10 for the actual movie, 10 for the DVD, 11 for Irons.)
