The Question asked was never answered here.
So because i bought the eagle blu ray recently i think i can answer this.

Picture Quality in general is the same as before because theres only the French HD Master for this movie.

But....and thats a BIG but....this Italian Eagle Edition has a stuttering issue.

I think it could have to do with the fact that they encoded the Picture to clean 24fps. All the other Blu Rays are in 23,976fps.
Eagle somehow made a mistake in this conversion. Dont know if this is really the reason but its the only explanation i have.

During the whole movie there are frequently short stuttering moments.
How can i describe it...it looks like a frame is missing in this moments and therefore the stuttering.
Its not always visible cause it depends on what is going on in the picture when the stuttering happens.
But there are more than one stuttering moments in which you can see it pretty good.

Im not at home at the moment. I will provide a time code in a couple of hours.

FYI, I just remembered, I used to encounter this on my old setup.

I just lived with it for years until it was explained here as an issue with 24fps material. I later learned that either the player or TV (I can't remember which) was equipped for 23.976fps and stuttered with numerous European BDs, which are often encoded at full 24fps.

I can't remember if it was a player issue with my Panasonic BD player or a TV issue with my American Samsung TV. Someone here explained it once before, but I haven't a clue who or where.

I don't have the problem on my new setup anymore.
