French Connection 5 Star is exact same in Box Set correct?
I couldn't really find the definitive answer, but from what I can gather with the info and extras the French Connection I 5-Star from Fox and the French Conection I & II Box Set are the same transfers and all that for the first film? I just want to make sure before I pick up the box set?
Also, is this a great box set to have? Thanks for help.

according to digitalbits.com it's the same 5 star edition for french connection 1
the only benefit from the box is the sequel.
i've check around stores & i see the french connection 1 is the same with individual release
hope it helps
PS; i also had a chance to rent it at local library (both movies from the box set)...

I've seen a (purportedly) stand-alone THX Optimized R1 US release of FRENCH CONNECTION II for sale on eBay. The seller seemed perfectly reputable. Can anyone verify that such an animal existed at one point? I realize that FC II is only available nowadays bundled with FC, but was it available separately early in the DVD days?
