As for supplements, HBO (via Warner) will offer:
- Profiles (49 minutes, HD)
- The realization
- Making-of (23 minutes, HD)
- An analysis of the Pacific War (10 minutes, HD)
- Track of comments and additional content in PiP
A real event, and believe the first reviews of our fellow North Americans, the technical results exceed expectations on all points, with a strikingly realistic acoustic rendering and scale, and the images breathtaking.
