I don't know to be honest...I had the R1 version and the picture was sublime but it was let down by the mono soundtrack...

R2 UK has mandatory cuts to horses fall stunts.

R4 AUS is uncut & 5.1

One of my top ten soundtracks of all time.

Yep you're right its mono... although I prefer that over a bombastically overmixed 5.1 rip apart job...Jaws anyone??

How's the 5.1 on the R2?
