'Maria Full Of Grace' - does BD only have English dubbed track?

[Bruce Morrison]

I've just received the UK BD of 'Maria Full Of Grace' (released by Icon) and the documentation states that the language is English!

The original dialogue is mostly in Spanish, so I assume any English version must have been dubbed.

It's just as well I noticed this before breaking open the shrinkwrap, as I will be able to return it for a refund if necessary.

However, I'm wondering whether the documentation could be incorrect, as I wasn't aware of any English-dubbed version of this film. Could anyone who has this BD confirm whether it does in fact contain the original Spanish language soundtrack?

Thanks for any info!

I haven't seen the blu-ray yet (I'll try and remember to check the box out later when I go to work), but I remember watching the DVD in a Spanish class a while back, and it had Spanish audio with English subtitles. Obviously the teacher had control, so I don't know if the subs were optional or not, but they were definitely speaking Spanish.

Our screeners for Icon's latest titles were shipped awhile ago but still have not arrived. As soon as they show up, I will provide a review for Maria Full of Grace, Once, and Rules of Attraction.

It's in Spanish as it should be. The 'English' is the commentary. Disc looks very nice so far from what I've looked at.

In the Play.com 2 for £22 http://www.play.com/DVD/Blu-ray/4-/8...e/Product.html or the HMV.com 2 for £25 http://hmv.com/hmvweb/displayProduct...;-1&sku=929556

I don't know how to check if it's Region free as my Sony player is Region B and my PC is multiregion. Is there an application that can do this yet?

Had a look inside PowerDVD Ultimate and it implies it's Region all http://img527.imageshack.us/img527/7025/screengrab.jpg

I tried to do that with my keyboard's print screen button (which has worked for over 20 years!) but I see they've disabled that with HD discs. What a ****ing cheek!

Anyway, grabbed it with the free http://www.download.com/Screen-Grab-...html?tag=mncol

That's great - thanks for the information. I can safely break the shrinkwrap now and play it! I thought the documentation was probably misleading, but I wanted to be sure. Thanks again.
