Mask, Peter Bogdanovich's tale of a disfigured boy and his unconventional mother, gets a new soundtrack with this DVD release. Featuring songs by Bruce Springsteen that were not in the original theatrical presentation, the film is presented in widescreen anamorphic that creates an image with an aspect ratio of 1.85:1. English soundtracks are rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1, DTS 5.1, and Dolby Digital Mono. English, Spanish, and French subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include a feature-length commentary recorded by the director as well as an interview with him. Even though his directorial skills have eroded over the years, Bogdanovich remains an excellent storyteller and his comments are engaging.

Ashley Judd and Natalie Portman shine in this offbeat, delicious slice of life about a down-on-her-luck Southern teen.

John G. Avildsen's biopic of rodeo legend Lane Frost, 8 Seconds, comes to DVD with a pair of transfers. The widescreen anamorphic transfer preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1 and is preferable to the standard full-frame image. Closed-captioned English soundtracks are rendered in both Dolby Digital 5.1 and Dolby Digital Surround. English subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include the original theatrical trailer and filmographies of the cast and crew. This is a solid release from New Line, although clips of the real Frost in action would have added a great deal to this package.
