Title Best
Pickup on South Street (Filmmakers Collection)R1
The Region 1 Criterion Collection edition has a number of excellent Special Features, in addition to the Cinema Cinemas featurette included on the Region 4 release.These are :
* Video interview of Sam Fuller by critic Richard Schickel.
 * Illustrated biographical essay on Fuller.
* Complete Fuller poster filmography.
* Stills galleries of photos, lobby cards and original paintings.
* Trailers for eight Sam Fuller films.
* 20 page booklet with excerpts from Fuller's autobiography, article by Martin Scorsese, plus new essay.
* English subtitles for the deaf and hearing impaired.
* Optimal image quality : RSDL dual-layer edition.

The Region 2 release by Optimum Home Entertainment is virtually barebones, with a few trailers, but not one for Pickup on South Street.

The Region 4 release is certainly good value, being part of a four disc/movie set. The single disc is also available separately from Umbrella Entertainment (RRP $19.99).For great admirers of the film, the Region 1 Criterion disc with its extras might be the choice.
