My friend has that. I just have the 5 dollar one. To be honest, I don't think it's worth it, as great as a movie as it is. But I can see why you'd want to get the really good version "for a few dollars more"
That goes for most old movies. Since they were made so long ago, it was an age where any making of or supplemantary material wasn't made, and deleted footage wasn't saved. There also is very little material from the filmmakers and theres rarely any commentary since the filmmakers are dead or dying.
And in most cases all the kings horses and all the kings men can't make the quality that much better because its simply on film that is too dated and beyond perfect restoration.
That is a cool special edition though. The case is awesome.
Sometimes there are great special features. My King Kong (1933) dvd has a lot of awesome shit on it.
I think the best bet with classics, in terms of bonus features, is to create new documentaries and commentaries and use current popular filmmakers to give their thoughts and testimonies to how it inspired them.
