Criterion has just put out DVD and Blu-ray editions, both from a new transfer and sharing the same extras.

  4. An Appreciation: Richard Griffiths' outstretched hand

    Richard Griffiths was an actor of enormous size. He was physically big — obese to the point of sometimes needing a cane to get around. But his mind and soul were equally large, and his eloquence was so prodigious that playwright Alan Bennett found in him an ideal interpreter of his magnificently articulate art.
