Touchez pas au grisbi=

    There are two main other releases of this film that I can find (although there was an earlier French edition); the Region 1 Criterion Edition and a Region 2 French edition. They all seem to be roughly equivalent in terms of video quality so it comes down to extras. The Region 2 does include English subtitles on the feature but I cannot confirm whether they extend to the extras. The Criterion includes the following extras, all of which are quite short:

  • French Television Series Excerpt on Jacques Becker
  • 2002 Interview with Actor Daniel Cauchy
  • 1972 Interview Excerpt with Lino Ventura
  • Clip from a 1978 Interview with Composer Jean Wiener
  • Theatrical Trailer
  • Pamphlet Essays by Film Critics Philip Kemp and Geoffrey O'Brien

The Region 2 edition includes

  • Filmographies
  • Poster Gallery (3) and Photos (9)
  • Theatrical Trailer
  • 1972 Interview Excerpt with Lino Ventura
  • Clip from a 1978 Interview with Composer Jean Wiener
  • Short Introduction to the film by Patrick Raynal

This really is a tough call; it comes down to whether an interesting commentary is of more value to you than interviews with people directly involved in the film. I'm going to call it a draw.
