The second collection of short films from automaker BMW is now available on DVD. This release of The Hire series features the newest installments Hostage (directed by John Woo), Ticker (directed by Joe Carnahan), and Beat the Devil (directed by Tony Scott). The disc also includes all five of the original films, starring Clive Owen as the driver, along with a crapload of extras. Visit the BMW Films website for ordering information.
What's most interesting about this is the inclusion of the original five films in The Hire series included. BMW already released a DVD of the original series for BMW owners, but one of the films -- Wong Kar-Wai's The Follow -- was not included on that disc due to licensing issues. Will be nice to have it available at last.
