Hi everyone, where can I find the French DVd of Drunken Master?
i know i have made a thread here before a long time ago, but now unfortunately, its gone forever, and i cannot find it anymore.
sigh...it had someof the best facts ever in there. damn.
anyways, just to remind myself, i am looking for the Drunken Master DVD which contains the full Cantonese soundtrack of the film, which i assume is the French DVD?
would really appreciate it if anyone can help me on this.
thanks.

I´d try the usual online french stores www.fnac.com, www.amazon.com, www.alapage.com, www.priceminister.com, www.assia-difussion.com, www.ebay.fr
But, doesn´t the new HK Mei Ah vers. include the original canto track?

No, the HK DVD only has the shorter Cantonese track that was on the Columbia

i see, but i thought the Columbia triStar DVD is not the best choice for the Cantonese audio as it switches to english at many parts or sections.
so now i remember, HK Video! so correct me if im wrong, but that is the one im looking for? with the full Cantonese soundtrack?
and isnt HK video EuroVideo?
and may this be it?:

HK DVD (Mei Ah) and US DVD (Columbia) have incomplete Cantonese track
French DVD (HK Video) has complete Cantonese track but no English subs
Awkward, isn't it?

The Old Mei Ah VCD has complete audio and English subs-but it's cropped to 4:3.
The HK LD has both too I believe.

I think the Mei Ah cuts these scenes.

So what scenes is it that are always cut or damaged?

:lol Man OHMSS you really did love you DM thread...
So yeah the French DVD with full Cantonese track is the HK Video release. It is ONLY available as part of the Wong Fei-Hung boxset which also includes Dreadnaught and Magnificent Butcher. It costed me around $50 - $60 to import it. I might get rid of mine soon, i'm still not sure...

amazon.fr works the same way as amazon.com
just use the same Buttons vice versa.
PS : in the french box (in Amazon link) :
Le maître chinois = Drunken Master
Le héros magnifique = Magnificent Butcher
Le tigre blanc = Dreadnaught
;)
PPS : the box is very beautiful (HK Video is the best french video editor for HK movies)
