I was about to do the happy dance, but now see that DVD is probably only a UK format DVD, so it won't play on my machine. : ( I've been wanting to see that movie for a long time, but would prefer to see it at home, while stretched out on my sofa, because it's six hours long.

The copyright issues for the movie and the extras sound complicated. Who knows when Criterion will buy and release this on DVD. Even a great movie like THE CONFORMIST is still not available on DVD.

The three Silvana Mangano movies I really like are BITTER RICE, DEATH IN VENICE and TEOREMA.

The very pretty TV cook, Giada de Laurentis, is Silvana Mangano's granddaughter
