Tucker: The Man and His Dream

"Francis Ford Coppola's visually and emotionally compelling, Academy award-nominated biopic Tucker: The Man and His Dream comes to DVD with a widescreen, anamorphic transfer, Dolby Digital 5.1 Audio, and a few worthwhile features, including a detailed but entertaining commentary track by Coppola. The ""making of"" featurette ""Under the Hood: Making Tucker"" adds further insight into the creative processes behind the film, but the disc's most interesting extra is ""Tucker: The Man and the Car,"" a 1948 promotional film about Preston Tucker and his ""car of the future,"" about which Coppola also provides a commentary. Though it isn't crammed full of bonuses, the DVD of Tucker: The Man and His Dream chooses quality over quantity, providing just enough supplements to enrich the film instead of detract from it."
