Anyone own Science of Sleep Blu-Ray from France?

I was under the impression, perhaps, that some older and/or foreign Blu-Rays were not region coded. Is this region coded? And if it is not, does it have Film B?

Might belong in the international forum, but it is specific to hi-def.

Thanks, if anyone has an answer.

I have it.
I'm able to play it on my Region A PS3.

Great film, great package. It includes Film B. No English subtitles on either version, though.

How much of Film B is in French anyway? I mean, 70% or more of the film is in English to begin with...

Thanks for the info!

Film A has 70% in English and Film B has about 40% in English, I'd say.

Film B is more on the perspective of the characters surrounding Gael's character so it's mostly in French. I did not understand a word of it but from the looks of it, it's pretty cynical. Hehehe...

If this gets rereleased with English subs, I'm all over it.

Well, just to get it in hi-def I'll get the import.

One of these days I'll learn French.

Now I'm skeptical. I googled "Amazon fr Science de Reves Blu-ray" and it brought up a thread from some other forum and the last post was a guy saying the Blu-Ray extras did not work on his PS3. I would hate to import this for $40 or more just to have it not work.

So while I am surprised that I got a response in the first place, are there any others who can confirm that this disc is not region coded and will work? I don't have a PS3, either, so it would be nice to hear from someone with a set-top.

Can confirm that the disc is region free. However, the reason the extras won't work is because of the Pal and NSTC thing (the extras are in standard def). Only the trailer can be played... and it's not even that brilliant trailer with the songs from Death Cab for Cutie etc...

I guess that makes sense, and I guess it doesn't matter cause most of the extras are on the US DVD...but maybe I'll wait until Be Kind Rewind hits DVD/Blu-Ray. Perhaps corporate synergy will work in everyone's favor and we'll get Blus of NL's Rewind, Human Nature and WB's Science of Sleep on Blu. I'm not exactly holding my breath, but we'll see.

Be Kind Rewind is slated for the UK. Looking forward to that!
