Format: Widescreen. Single-sided, dual-layer disc.
Language: English. Dolby Digital 5.1.
Subtitles: English - Hearing Impaired.
Extras: Theatrical trailer, director's audio commentary,
behind-the-scenes featurettes, deleted scenes.
Comments: Not a bad little package of extras at all.
There is an excellent commentary with director Les Mayfield,
writer John Rogers and editor Michael Tronick and four short
(between 4 and 8 minutes) featurettes on The Making Of
(brief interviews with cast and director), Creating The
Old West (building an old fashioned western town), How
To Be An Outlaw (taking cowboy classes) and Costuming
The Cowboys.
For mine the level of detail in building the set was very
interesting but the pick of the bunch was the voice over of
the costume designer explaining how the main characters were
outfitted and the reasons for their different styles.
There are two deleted scenes Jesse and Frank argue
and Jim and Layla and I reckon they both would have
added a little extra if included in the released movie. The
former shows a slightly nervy out-of-control side to Jesse
James (probably a more realistic portrayal of him) and the
latter a nice little introduction of the youngest gang member
to a woman of bad repute.
