Theatrical, re-release, "The Treasures of Columbia Classics", and "Midnight Express" trailers are in English with optional Portuguese subtitles.
This is the 2019 reissue which adds the original mono track. Unfortunately it doesn't list the mono track on the inlay and it shares the same artwork and UPC as the 2017 release, except the reissue is missing the "digital copy" on the banner. The 2019 pressing has the code "49631LTR" above the "Printed in the USA" text on the rear of the keep case inlay.
Note the Amazon links for the 2017 release and 2019 release are identical, so it is not clear which pressing would be received when purchased. -
