Apart from being a great brit film,what is so special about it ? as the below link says it has no special features and yet it is called a Special Edition.

Carlton once release a DVD of The Red Shoes and some of them had a label on saying that they were a "special edition". When I asked what was special about them, they said "Well, they've got a special label on them."

They were really all the same, but they didn't put the "special edition" labels on all of them.

Bryan Forbes' shooting script in PDF formant.
Original Theatrical script in PDF format.
Original Theatrical Trailer.

I have it; it has all the extras listed and a very nice transfer to boot. Superb.

Ditto, very highly recommended. For full details of this and other of their releases, this is the manufacturer's website... - Network DVD

Bit of a Bay Window, what??
