Springsteen soundtrack advice

I'm buying Christmas prezzies. This year I'm going with a triangle motif -
people will get three different media items (Book, CD and DVD) with an
underlying theme. These will be presented in a triangular gift box.

The underlying theme for my brother's gifts is "Bruce Springsteen". I have
the book and the CD. I'm a bit stuck on the DVD. I don't want to just get
him a DVD of a concert 'cos that's a little too obvious. Instead I have two
choices.

"Cop Land" - starring Sylvester Stallone and Harvey Keitel. There are a
number of Springsteen tracks on the soundtrack and the whole atmosphere of
the film is inspired by Springsteen's music.

"The Indian Runner" - directed by Sean Penn. The story is a movie version of
the Springsteen song "Highway Patrolman", but there are no Springsteen songs
on the soundtrack.

So... which of those do you think is the better choice for a Springsteen
themed prezzy?

Well, obviously I don't know the complete background to this, but unless he
already has a few DVD's of Bruce in concert, I can't see why a concert DVD
is invalid. Lets put it this way, if I had a book, plus a cd, plus a
concert, what more could a man need:-)

Just don't get the Barcelona one. Sound quality seems a bit suss, as far
as I'm concerned.

Oh what a wonderful idea. You must be a very creative person. I guess people
already value your sort og gifts from other years.

Actually I begin to get an inspiration out of reading about it. For instance
I have long time looked for a DVD with the marvellous film "Picnic at
hanging Rock". The other day my sister appeared with...
