The best tracks are a combination of preparation (including reading from notes, which I think is fine so long as it&#039;s not too monotone) and off-the-cuff while watching the film. The worst are when the filmmakers, unmoderated, simply tell you what&#039;s happening in the scene, which is, you know, self-evident. (A well-prepped moderator is a huge asset in a group talk.)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Funny moments in commentary: Susan Sarandon taken aback by a strange restaurant set in THE HUNGER (&quot;who the hell would eat in a place like that?&quot;) and director Piers Haggard dryly relating the daily distress of directing a cast of certifiables--Klaus Kinski, Oliver Reed, Sterling Hayden, Nicol Williamson, and Sarah Miles--in the snake picture VENOM. The original director, Tobe Hooper, chose them, then bolted when the inmates took over the asylum--but really, he had only himself to blame, as Kinski and Reed alone would raise the security level without teaming them. Haggard discussing the day the two actors got into a huge dustup before shocked visitors from Guinness, which produced the film, should really be put on YouTube (&quot;Limey cocksucker!&quot; &quot;Nazi lunatic!&quot;).</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Francis Ford Coppola&#39;s commentary tracks are generally excellent.
