DVD Synopsis
The title character, a manic depressive prone to very irrational behavior (Richard Gere), is hospitalized for treatment. While there, the psychiatrist responsible for his rehabilitation (Lena Olin) becomes involved with him and cannot stand to allow his check-out. ~ John Bush, All Movie Guide
Mike Figgis directs Richard Gere in Mr. Jones, which comes to DVD with a pair of transfers. The widescreen image preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1 and is preferable to the standard full-frame transfer. A closed-captioned English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Surround, while Spanish and Portuguese soundtracks have been recorded in Dolby Digital Mono. English, Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, Korean, and Thai subtitles are available. Supplemental materials include talent files and bonus trailers. This is a good disc, but one that is a bit pricey considering the lack of quality extras. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide

Richard Gere is excellent in his character,totally believable.A little difficult due to subject matter but extremely well acted by all.Maybe that is why it is difficult, the main character is manic deppressive and it is heartbreaking as well as hopeful.
