No, I don't have this! Looks as if I will soon, though.  ;)

I have the CD of Philip Glass's writing music to match the film. There is a video, which I had but can't find it! Darned!  :(

Film or just soundtrack, you can't go wrong.

The criterion DVD has the option of playing the soundtrack (new recording in 5.1 ch) w/o dialogue I think.
