I am pretty stoked that Criterion has announced a new 4K edition of one of my favoritest satire/black comedies, Gus Van Sant’s To Die For. But … c’mon, Criterion! Those special features are a bit anemic. I remember the good ol’ days when you all were the gold standard for home video special editions.
