OVERALL: Draw
Between the US, UK, French Carlotta, and German editions, since all releases have differing extras.
However note:
- the Severin and Plaion releases each feature a full 4K transfer with no SD inserts.
- the Shameless disc removes the frame line from the closing sequence and contains two ways in which to view the film: a 'Play with Extra Scenes' option enables the viewer to watch the movie with footage missing from the HD master (approx. 40s) inserted from an SD source. It has also English subtitles for the Italian soundtrack.
The Italian edition has exclusive extras, but they are not English friendly and Italian subtitles are forced on the movie when playing English soundtrack.
