The good news is PA said on their Korean Twitter that they will take orders through April 16th and make 100 more copies than the total number ordered at that time. So it'll be much easier to get this version than the last 3 blu-rays. I just wish it was a numbered edition.

CAROL (2nd Edition)

PRE-ORDER: APRIL 11 / 2PM (KOREA TIME)

* Note: You’re guaranteed a copy if you order by APRIL 16 / 11AM (KOREA TIME)

Among all the editions released, is the bonus disc on this anything new?

I would also like to know if there’s a specific runtime for each feature on there

The discs have the same content as before. Just new disc art.

I just put one of the bonus discs in to get the times. It is mostly interviews with the people involved. The main menu is in Korean, but every video is in English. I don't know who all the people are, so for some are just times.

16:53 talking to director Todd Haynes
13.01 talking to Cate
7:58 talking to Rooney
4:42 talking to Kyle Chandler
5:29 talking to Jake Lacy?
8:56
5:57
11:51
3:58
6:49
6:43
3:46
3:31
4:01
3:39
16:41 B-Roll (Behind the scenes)

I’m guessing this is EPK material. Not necessarily a bad thing but usually aren’t as strong as other forms of interviews - they’re meant to be stitched together as pull quotes by the press/promotional featurettes. My hope is the interviews aren’t redundant or duplicate so much of the same material as the interviews on the first disc. For a long time I just assumed this would be a holy grail of 2 hours of B-roll! (There’s 12 minutes of B-roll available online.) At least these aren’t available online and seem exclusive to this disc.

The German disc from Universum has a similar selection but there’s fewer interviews and of different lengths.

10 Interviews
- Cate Blanchett (12:25)
- Kyle Chandler (4:06)
- Rooney Mara (7:53)
- Jake Lacy (5:54)
- Todd Haynes, Director (13:23)
- Phyllis Nagy, Screenplay (9:25)
- Christine Vachon, Producer (6:21)
- Edward Lachman, Cinematography (7:08)
- Judy Becker, Production Design (7:02)
- Sandy Powell, Costume Design (3:25)
"Behind the Scenes" featurette (7:31)

I threw in a pre-order but I’m hoping that I’m not landed with import duty (even though it isn’t a large item). I can get it on eBay for about £5 cheaper but I suppose there may be less chance of that being fulfilled than by going directly to PLAIN.

I’m pretty confident these are the same interviews available online on TrailerAddict and ScreenSlam but they run slightly longer on this release. The Haynes interview on TA is in 3 parts, running to just under 15 minutes. Blanchett’s is in 2 parts, running to around 10 minutes, Mara’s is 4:49, Lacy’s is 4:11, Chandler’s is 2:37.

So this disc lets the soundbites run longer
