No, it's not. That's the French title.

Since this is a TF1 release, it will most likely have no English subtitles.

It does have english subs for the french language track. The disc blocks the english subs when listening to the Italian track.

The image is SDR Rec.709.

Are you sure? I saw this in Fnac today and there was no mention of English subtitles on the back (or I’d have bought it).

KiLLPaTRiCK · 08-02-2018, 09:38 PM

Yes, tell us. Is there English subtitles?

Sundance · 08-06-2018, 03:49 PM

Yes. At least on the UHD disc.

Sundance · 08-07-2018, 01:37 PM

Was able to check the Blu-Ray now. No English subs.

So... 4K has English subs and the BD doesn't.

grahams76 · 08-07-2018, 03:37 PM

Thanks. Does the film play well in French? (As according to an above poster it's not possible to watch it in Italian with English subs).

KrugerIndustrial · 10-14-2018, 04:58 AM

Was this film originally shot in French or Italian? I know Hallyday was French and Moschin was Italian. If it was shot in French, then I might pick this up at some point due to the English subtitles.

I can confirm the above. I just recently picked this as a second-hand copy.

4K: English subtitles available but(* only with French audio. Italian audio forces French subtitles. Cannot be changed via subtitle button.
BD: No English subtitles at all. Same audio options.

*) First run the disc in Oppo 203. Then switched to Panny 820 w/ Enhanced firmware. It has limited Prohibited User Operations disabling capabilities and it allows you to change audio to Italian and subtitles to English via RC buttons. Great!

The underlying 4K restoration seems great but the grain presentation appears mushy. There is still some but clearly (too much) DNR has been applied. Damnation!
