Can anyone tell me what supplemental material is on the “Picnic at Hanging Rock” Criterion LD and if all or part of it was ported over to the Criterion DVD?
Thanks in advance!
Brian

Not sure what the DVD has.

DVD is the same. Just the theatrical trailer.

•The long awaited director’s cut, with a new widescreen transfer and a new 5.1 surround mix
•The original theatrical trailer
•Liner notes by Vincent Canby
•Subtitles for the deaf and hearing impaired
