A Different Man Hits Home


My favorite movie that I saw at Sundance 2024 was Aaron Schimberg's surreal tragi-comic masterpiece A Different Man (it ultimately landed at #14 on my movies of the year list) -- starring Sebastian Stan as a man who gets what he wished for and finds out notsomuch -- so I'm extremely glad to see that A24 is finally giving the movie the blu-ray treatment, just announced today! You can pre-order it at their site! It's out in June, and includes lots of special features which I'll list down below. A24 always does a terrific job with their discs (cannot wait for the one for Queer, which hits on May 27th). Here is my review of A Different Man if you missed it. Have y'all been able to see this yet? Thoughts if so? And hit the jump for the special features...

I was shocked at how much I loved this film. That third act is bonkers. Stan is such a gorgeous man, but can he act. Everything he does with just his eyes is beautiful, and he has that elusive ability to make an unlikeable character watchable.

It’s really a pity that Stan’s first Oscar
nom isn’t arrived for this Picture, despite a Globe win (and Best Leading Performance Prize in Berlin)
