Those who have bought the DVD of Darren Aronofsky’s The Fountain will probably like to hear what the director has to say about his film. Unfortunately there is none available, until now.
In conjuction with a revamped web presence, Aronofsky has put up a commentary track online at his website which you can listen to when you play that DVD, but wait, even if you don’t have the disc, what are you waiting for?

I’m impatiently waiting for this movie to get a proper DVD release. I know there is a ton of material that could be turned into great special features. The double dip is inevitable, it’s just that the film made almost no money so the studio is going to cover their backs. That’s a very classy thing of Aronofsky to do of course. I read that there is a new trend of directors recording audio commentaries for movies that are still in theaters. John August just did that for his movie THE NINES. The idea is to make people go back and watch the movie a second time while listening to the commentary on their ipods.

Before the age of DVD, there was a video store in my university town that used to dub the Criterion Laserdisc audio tracks onto VHS tapes and rent out these audio dubbed VHS transfers out. Neat Idea. Other than a few hard-core cinemaphiles, I don’t see the practice of either third-party (downloadable) commentaries or ipod-to-the-theatre tracks ever catching on in large way though.
