The Interpreter (Widescreen Edition) - 7964

Product Description Academy Award winners Nicole Kidman and Sean Penn star in the action-packed thriller, The Interpreter. In one of the hidden corridors of power at United Nations headquarters, translator Silvia Broome (Kidman) overhears a potentially explosive secret about a planned assassination attempt. But when federal agent Tobin Keller (Penn) investigates her claim and digs deeper into Silvia's dangerous past, he begins to question whether she is a victim - or a suspect. From Oscar-winning director Sydney Pollack comes the riveting, edge-of-your-seat story of international intrigue that Ebert & Roeper give "Two thumbs up!" Bonus Content: Alternate Ending Deleted Scenes Sydney Pollack at Work: From Concept to Cutting Room Interpreting Pan & Scan vs. Widescreen Feature Commentary with Director Sydney Pollack The Ultimate Movie Set: The United Nations A Day in the Life of Real Interpreters Set Contains: An excellent interview with director Sydney Pollack illustrates his intelligent approach of making films. However, the fact the alternate ending was even shot is bewildering. Thank goodness it didn't make the final cut! Pollack makes a passionate plea for keeping the widescreen aspect for home video. Although he enjoys the squarer, full-screen picture, he tells us that panning-and-scanning a widescreen print is disregarding how he shot the film. Oddly enough, Universal released the DVD in both formats. --Doug Thomas
