But it's pretty good if you consider what it is, a short <b>favorable</b> art house treatment of the cigar industry. When was the last time outsiders treated the cigar industry favorably? I was thinking maybe we should a send a copy of this to local politicians every time they start talking about bans, with a note saying: "Look dummy. These are the people you're gonna put out of work!" It's short enough that maybe they won't give it to a staffer to review for them. LOL Yeah Tom,

But I'm a sucker for cigar media, so I'll end up with this eventually. It sounds like it sits in the middle of the CAO and Fuente video's. Wow 8 minutes is rediculous!

As I mentioned in the review, the actual feature video is only 8 minutes. (Actually, closer to 7 and a half, I timed it the second time I watched!) However, that being said, the special features content will keep you occupied a bit longer. I read, watched and listened to everything on the DVD (including bonus director interview and music tracks) in probably an hour or an hour and a half. And I mean everything. Most people probably won't read every glossary entry like I did. LOL Patrick,

I couldn't find one on its home page, and for 25 bucks I'd like to know how many bags of popcorn to pop for this. Thanks alot, and again, great work. Brian,
