Page 1 of Oliver Stone box set for £21.99

Hiya

Ive just bought the Oliver Stone 4 disc box set for £21.99 from WH Smith in Rochdale,it was marked at £21.99 and scanned at the till at £21.99.
The set has JFK special edition directors cut 2 disc set
Heavan and Earth
Any Given Sunday special edition directors cut 2 disc set
Oliver Stones America

If its priced dearer at your WH Smith take the sticker off I bet it still scans at £21.99
My store has one left if anyone wants it

Samantha

Well done Samantha!-your posting spread quickly in Newbury where the same price also applies- I got the last one.

Many thanks

Stuart

Serious deal Sam, just put it by for the price of £21.99. Can`t believe it well done !!!

Believe it or not WHS have confirmed this IS the correct price !

Bananas !

And once again, in case you don`t believe it :

JFK (2 disc version)
Any Given Sunday (2 disc version)
Heaven & Earth
Oliver Stone`s America (documentary)

I probably would have paid £20 just for Any Given Sunday as Pacino`s in it (sure you`ll agree, Dukey).

This really is a fantastic package - hurry peeps - they`re going fast....

It may be WHS`s price but DVD street want £39.99 for it.

Got mine from WHS in Leeds today.

Thanks for your info.

Can somebody tell me what Oliver Stones America is, and is it any good?

Thanks

It`s just a short documentary (about an hour), but also includes a short ten-minute film he made called `Last Year In Vietnam` from 1971. Here`s the blurb :

"You watch the end credits scroll, finish the popcorn, turn up the lights - end of story. Not so with films made by three-time Academy Award winner Oliver Stone. They`re like seismic events that stir up aftershocks of controversy and debate.

"Oliver Stone`s America is an intriguing one-on-one with the director behind the movies, an insightful interview augmented with clips and photos from his films and personal life. Any Given Sunday, JFK, Natural Born Killers, Platoon, Born on the Fourth of July, Wall Street, Nixon and more are seen through the prism of Stone`s own challenging perspective. `The mind thinks fast,` he says. `The audience understands. They see fast`. It`s a privilege to keep pace with a moviemaker with such uncompromising respect for his viewers"

(from packaging of "Oliver Stone`s America" Warner Home Video 2001)

I haven`t watched it yet, and probably won`t until I`ve watched the other three, and NBK again. From the short documentary on NBK I grew to like the guy, so hopefully this should be an insightful bonus disc.

Got the box set today! This is a real bargain!


Thank you Samantha!

On their web site it`s 39.99 but they do have 3 for 2 offer on so maybe they`ve knocked the price up again.

Well done Samantha!

Wot an ace find.

Just got the last one in my local Smittys.

But wot about the cr*p packaging? Snapper cases with a three page foldout to get to the extras disks in a greaseproof wallet! Real Bummer!

Still, `spose content is everything and this set has it.

Thanks again, Samantha.
