What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The listing's audio details are inconsistent: it names English (Dolby Digital 2.0) in product details, while the description claims optional mono, 5.1 surround and isolated music tracks. Confirm the available tracks for this edition if audio format matters to you. The description calls this a Blu-ray release, while one customer-feedback summary refers to a DVD release. The stated restoration and picture qualities remain listing and customer claims, not independent verification.
