I have the french Blu-ray released two years ago, which is good, but I will probably buy one of these foreign releases for the 4K (the french Blu-ray is a "classic" 2K Blu-ray) and especially for the extras, interviews (with the lead actress, the editor, the screenwriter, etc.).

Well, this seems to be 8K fotos you posted for a 4k BR... very, very big...

But my question is, do you own a region free BR player? The disc shows it's coded A and i thought the french region was also coded in B.

I've seen another great John Frankenheimer movie:

The Manchurian Candidate - John Frankenheimer, 1962

A really suspenseful, psychological political Thriller,  a still very intense watch i found it to be. But i guess most of you will have seen this classic.

No, my Blu-ray player is indeed region B, so I can only play the french Blu-ray or the german Blu-ray that's coming out next month. However, if I had a 4K Blu-ray player (and a 4K TV), I could play the american Blu-ray whose cover I posted, because 4K is no longer region-restricted.
