The French Elephant Films release includes an exclusive French language presentation, though it lacks the two generic Universal Pictures featurettes found on all other releases. Only minor language differences between the Universal releases.
Note Universal labeled the "International Sound Version" on the discs as the "Silent Version". This version has a synchronized music & effects soundtrack with dialogue replaced with English intertitles, meant for substitution in foreign territories with locally-translated titles.
There are several versions of the film, including the premiere 152 minute silent version with synchronized sound, 133 minute restored talkie version, 133 minute international sound version, plus other reissue and international variants.
