OVERALL: Blu-ray A

The US Criterion release has the lengthiest extras, though note the Canadian Mongrel release has the US Paramount extras plus an interview all not on the Criterion and the Universal releases have a short EPK featurette not on the Criterion.

(This is not accurate. Though some of the features have identical names, I can actually confirm that the features on the Canadian Mongrel release & US Paramount release are entirely different & unique. The Criterion has the most extensive extras, but both the Mongrel & Paramount releases are also worth owning for someone interested in extra features).

Blu-ray A America- Paramount Home Entertainment - No cuts (165:21)
Blu-ray A #839 America- Criterion Collection - No cuts (165:27).
Blu-ray A Canada- Mongrel Media - No cuts (165:12).
