2008-02-06 - the interviews are interesting and intelligent
some are more exciting than others
but a good selection and well worth the price
Film School in a Box! 
2007-12-15 - Well, it's Inside the Actor's Studio and it's not. The interview format is similar, perhaps a bit more free-form and personal. It's a big auditorium audience and there is no Q&A. I particularly liked the sessions with Martin Scorsese and Susan Sarandon. Film buffs and fans will go for it!

Great box set 
2007-11-18 - This is really a great box set. Very well put together and features a lot of my favorite actors and directors. Professor Brown is a great interview with none of the pomp and stuffiness of The Actor's Studio. I know a lot of movie-going fans (and Clooney fans!) who will love getting this for Xmas.
