More DVD magic from Columbia TriStar Home Entertainment this month, with some of the latest and most anticipated releases to date.

A Knight's Tale – Collector's Edition (M15+)
Release Date: 20th March, 2002
Heath Ledger is one of Australia's hottest young stars and now you can take him home on one of Australia's hottest DVDs. The action packed, rags-to-riches medieval adventure A Knight's Tale on DVD will have you jumping on the lounge chairs and swinging from the light fittings with the massive special features included on this disc. Audio commentary by director Brian Helgeland and star Paul Bettany takes you through how some of the amazing scenes in A Knight's Tale were created, while a 15 minute behind-the-scenes feature with cast and crew interviews shows just how the movie was made. Perhaps movie trivia is more your thing? Then check out six never-before-seen deleted scenes with optional introduction by the filmmakers. There are also 11 additional behind-the-scenes featurettes to enjoy focusing on the film's music, costumes, the history of jousting and a Heath Ledger profile, along with 'We Are The Champions' music video performed by man-of-the-moment Robbie Williams and Queen. Top this off with a cool DVD-Rom feature that gives access to weblinks and a 3D screensaver – and you've got more fun than you can handle!
