Penn Jillette and Adam Rifkin’s long in-the-works movie Director’s Cut is now at long last available on Blu-ray and DVD combo pack
In Director’s Cut, Penn Jillette (Penn & Teller) plays a disgruntled crowd funder who kidnaps the footage, and star, of the film he backed in order to create his own version starring himself. Ironically, the film was actually financed by an elaborate crowdfunding campaign that attracted over 6,000 backers. Written by Penn and directed by Adam Rifkin, Director’s Cut stars Missi Pyle, Harry Hamlin and Hayes MacArthur, who are playing both themselves as well as characters in the movie within the movie, and features cameos by Lin Shaye, Kristy Hill, Nestor Carbonell and Penn’s longtime partner, Teller.
