The UK edition by Eureka is an easy winner, since it has an anamorphic transfer, both Italian and French soundtracks, by far the best extras, and is English friendly.

General notes:
- The movie was a Italian-French co-production, with all dialogue post-recorded. The principal French actors (Alain Delon, Annie Girardot, Roger Hanin, Suzy Delair) spoke their parts and were dubbed in the Italian language version: you can listen to their original voices only in the French sync-version. The voices of the Italian actors only appear in the Italian sync-version, with the exception of Claudia Cardinale who at that point of her career was always dubbed by another actress (because of her unusually dark voice).
- IMDB gives an original aspect ratio of 1.66:1.
