More DVD filler

It's not the worst DVD supplement you'll ever see, but it is the usual studio fodder. I'm sure Lee didn't have a hand in the title, but it's a bad one. Sure, the film proper has certain resonances with 9/11 (although it would work fine, maybe even better, without them), but 'American Filmmaker'? 'Evolution of'? What is he, cast in stone already?
