Between the US and French 2-disc editions for offering proper transfers and a different set of extras, but do note that the French edition has forced French subtitles and isn't English friendly.
For a visual comparison between the US Genius DVD and Danish Metronome VHS which shows several missing frames at the end of scenes, please visit our Reference Thread. The missing frames have been restored to the HD masters used for the Arrow Blu-ray edition which runs five minutes longer than the earlier transfers. -
