OVERALL: Draw
The US/Canadian, French, and the UK releases each have differing exclusive extras.
For audio, the French release has a stereo track while other releases have the original mono track.
GENERAL NOTES:
There are two versions of the film:
- the 1966 American theatrical release version;
- the 1996 re-release version which included the additional bacchanalia footage from the European release but, because it was derived from French materials, was missing a reference to the lead's new identity as an artist having a degree from the Sorbonne.

- Blu-ray A America- Criterion Collection - Yes, 1996 re-release version (107:19), see notes.
- Blu-ray A Canada- Criterion Collection - Yes, 1996 re-release version (107:19), see notes.
