audio commentary

Spoken film supplement

Audio commentary is a supplementary audio track, typically on a film or television release, featuring directors, actors, or other participants discussing the production while the content plays.

The commentary runs alongside the original audio, offering behind-the-scenes insights, anecdotes, or analysis: I always watch the Criterion releases with the audio commentary on.
