All I got is this Italian digipack, so I'll be buying that.

Good movie this. Great acting and Lauren Hutton is , but it has aged quite badly - it's very much of its era in production design, make-up and wardrobe. I love that time capsule feel. It's a great film but does look very dated, which is a shame because more people should watch it.
