Yes, caps revealed that one to be the best overall. There’s brief Latin dialogue in the film though which wouldn’t be subtitled in English. I’ve no idea about other text inserts. Honestly can’t remember from my viewing of the film.

That's a good point about all those text inserts. Guess I'll hold off

There are Blu Rays of "One Hundred Years of Solitude" and Visconti's "The Stranger," with English subtitles, posted on ebay. Does anyone know the quality of these items?

Spanish boot no doubt for the Visconti

That's not really an accurate description. The "Theatrical" that is in German only is a cut German theatrical version, not the true theatrical version seen in most of the world, which they are referring to as "Director's Cut" even though it's just the real, general theatrical version. It makes sense that the German theatrical version is only in German, since it was only cut for that market.

I got that today, too. And it's obviously AI slop, both the designs and ad copy.

If something like the Film Foundation or World Cinema Project made merch that benefitted their mission, I might buy a t-shirt. But this is just...merch for nothing? A scented candle? "Wall art" with a quote that I'm pretty sure is made up? Not even Vinegar Syndrome would be this shameless.
