It’s almost time to heel the love all over again. On March 31st, Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment will bring you Marley and Me on DVD and Blu-ray.
Based on the novel by John Grogan, Marley and Me tells the story of John (Owen Wilson), Jenny (Jennifer Aniston) and, of course, their yellow Labrador retriever Marley. It’s all pats on the head and tail wags until the couple realizes their new family member has the tendency to be a naughty and neurotic dog. While things can get crazy at times, at the end of the day, Marley is just a big ball of love that brings out the best in them.
If you aren’t a dog lover, pass this one up in the stores just as you probably did in the theaters. The only kind of person that could relate to the raw emotion expressed by the Grogan family in the film, is someone who has felt similar sentiments for an animal. But, then there’s me. I read the book, love dogs and was very much looking forward to the film. Nothing, not even having read the book, could prepare me for the film’s conclusion. It’s fine for a movie to leave me in tears, but this one left me sobbing uncontrollably. Perhaps I’m just a very sensitive person when it comes to these issues, but I will not be watching Marley and Me ever again.
If you have a heart of stone, you’ll have three purchasing options: a three-disc Blu-ray edition, two-disc DVD edition and the single-disc version. The smallest list of bonus features will be on the single-disc DVD, which includes deleted scenes and a gag reel. The two-disc DVD brings you 19 deleted scenes, “Finding Marley,” “Breaking the Golden Rule,” “On Set with Marley: Dog of All Trades,” “Animal Adoption,” the Purina Dog Chow Marley and Me video contest finalists, the Purina Dog Chow video hall of fame, “When Not to Pee,” gag reel and a digital copy of the film. The bonus material on the three-disc Blu-ray edition includes all of the material from the two-disc DVD version as well as a single DVD of the film. You can get the single-disc DVD for $29.98, the two-disc DVD for 34.98 or the Blu-ray edition for $39.99.
Can I borrow someone’s copy just to watch the gag reel?
