-------
Notes on country of origin:

It is unclear to me what the country of origin of this disc is. Blu-ray.com lists an item as German:

http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Die-Marqu ... gionCoding

but the front cover has the German '18' logo, whereas mine does not. However, the barcode on the back cover does match exactly.

Some sources say that the uncut hardcore version of the movie was refused a classification in Germany, so Ascot Elite might have released it in Austria or Switzerland instead.

Notes on a different release:

There is also a separate release which I believe is the softcore version only, but I don't own a copy. It is listed on Blu-ray.com:

and is available on Amazon, ASIN: B00XIU4B18
