Shattered Glass

, Billy Ray's unfairly overlooked drama about unethical journalist Stephen Glass, comes to DVD with a widescreen transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of the film. The English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital 5.1. English, and Spanish subtitles are accessible. The engaging supplemental materials are headed by a commentary track recorded by director Ray and the real-life Chuck Lane, who is portrayed in the film by Peter Sarsgaard (who won a handful of awards for his work in the movie). They provide a great deal of fascinating information both about the real-life events depicted in the film, as well as the troubles Ray encountered while making his first film. The other major extra is a piece by Steve Kroft in which he interviews the real Stephen Glass. Having Glass' own side of the story makes this disc something special. deserved a better fate at the box office, and this DVD should help expose the film to the audience it richly deserves.
