Query: No subtitles!

I was so happy to find this...even, granted, that it is a highly condensed version of the original TV serial (6 episodes of 50 min each compressed into 128 minutes). I, too, remember watching it on TV many years ago. The entire cast is wonderful, but Nino Manfredi's Geppetto is an especially memorable and touching performance by a great Italian actor.However, be aware that while there are both Italian and English-language soundtracks, if you want to hear the actors in their original Italian you'll have to do without subtitles--there are none on this DVD. Hence, the 4 stars instead of 5.
