The Making
of American Sniper
I did hold off and consider buying this Edition, but I have
to say, I was quite happy with the extra features contained on the original
release. I did finally opt for the HMV Exclusive steelbook Blu-ray, which is a
nicely presented package – and already Out of Print.
Extras Included:
One Soldier's Story: The Journey of American Sniper (1080p,
31:04): this piece looks at the filmmakers' interest in Kyle's story prior to
the book, meetings with Kyle prior to his death, character details and Kyle's
evolution through various scripts, casting, Kyle's murder during the
production's early stages, the movie's evolution and Taya Kyle's contributions,
hiring Clint Eastwood, the cast and crew's time with Taya, shooting locations
in the Middle East and California, military authenticity, real life SEAL Kevin
Lacz's contributions, Cooper's physical and firearm preparations for the role,
Cooper's role as producer, Cooper's and Miller's chemistry, and reaction to the
finished movie.
The Making of American Sniper (1080p, 28:35): A piece that,
with a different rhythm and through interviews, offers another look at the
movie, including cast and crew's early work on the script and building the
character, story themes, Cooper's performance, the movie's authenticity, Kyle's
journey, and more. Many of the same core ideas from the first supplement are
also reflected here.
