OVERALL: Draw
The UK release has the more substantial extras, but the US disc has an isolated score and its own booklet.
Note the US release has burned-in subtitles for Spanish dialogue while on the UK release they are optional.
Versions:
The initial release ran approximately 126 minutes. Director Ken Loach was never satisfied with his initial edit, and in 2005 released a Director's Cut that removed approximately 16 minutes of material. Much of the removed material is included as deleted scenes in the extras.

- Blu-ray ALL America- Twilight Time - No cuts - Director's Cut (110:38)
- Blu-ray ALL Limited Edition United Kingdom- Powerhouse Films - No cuts - Director's Cut (110:39)
