For those who go to Blockbuster, Goliath is now available on DVD from IFC. For the rest of the DVD watching world, it will be available everywhere else this fall. We’re really happy with how the DVD came out, and it’s loaded with all kinds of extras, including:
-“Eclectic Boogaloo”: A breakdancing instructional video by cast member and breakdance aficionado Carlos “Wrath of God” Aguirre.
– Extended basketball scene, complete with stats.
– Informative Q&A session from Goliath’s screening at the 2008 Cinevegas Film Festival.
– Moderately informative commentary track with the Zellner Brothers and cast member/pundit Sir Charles Bryant.
Here’s the trailer in case you have no idea what I’m talking about:
Some nice shout-outs for the Goliath poster(both versions), which were made by Kurt Volk.
GOLIATH will be making it’s international debut this weekend! First stop, Cracow, Poland, for the Off Camera Film Festival, Oct. 2nd at 19:00 and Oct. 4th at 16:00. The following day, GOLIATH will be playing in London at the Raindance Film Festival (Oct. 5th, 19:00).
We’re very excited to be screening at both of these festivals, and would like to thank everyone who made this possible. As a special bonus, here are the Polish program notes for “Goliat”:
Goliatrez. David ZellnerRozpoczynaj?c swój obraz zmontowanym zdj?ciem m??czyzny, jego kota i wydartej twarzy jego ?ony, z któr? si? w?a?nie rozwodzi, re?yser odwo?uje si? do istoty kondycji ludzkiej. Fabu?a filmu wydaje si? kwesti? drugorz?dn? przy komicznych sytuacjach z ?ycia bohatera. Uwypuklaj?c zabawne aspekty tak prostych i nieweso?ych czynno?ci jak przycinanie brody czy… podpisywanie papierów rozwodowych, bracia David i Nathan Zellner udowadniaj?, ?e s? równie zabawni, co spostrzegawczy.
…and then translated back into English again (via computer-y online translator):
Image starting assembled photo man, cat and face his wife, it divorces with which exactly, producer appeals for essence of human form. Plot of movie seems at comic situations from life of hero secondary problem. Amusing aspects simple emphasizing so and bleak actions as trimming of beard or signing of divorce paper, brothers David and Nathan Zellner, they prove that they are planes, amusing, observant.
IFC Films will be releasing GOLIATH via IFC Festival Direct starting July 9th. Check with your local cable provider for this video-on-demand service. Goliath will be available on DVD in the Fall/Winter of 2008
