Another new Cathay reissue, w/Connie Chan

Postby dleedlee » Thu Oct 07, 2004 1:37 pm

Just noticed at layoyo For Better, For Worse listed. Again, no Eng. subs in the specs. Looks like an early role in Mandarin for Connie. It has both Man. and Cant. tracks, so I might go for it.

I'm afraid the new Cathay / Panorama releases will have just chinese subs. :(

From AsianDVDGuide:
«Tim Youngs sent me an email saying the For Better, For Worse DVD does indeed have English subtitles. He hasn't watched Devotion but said the DVD case says it has English subtitles.»

That's great news! I had been looking for the Yesasia listing to confirm the subs and could not find either of the new titles. It must be just posted recently.

From Panorama, in my inbox this morning:

Dear Mr. Lee,

First of all, many thanks for your support on Cathay movies!

Panorama received several enquires re. the English subtitles of Cathay Movies in the past few days. The fact is all Cathay titles distributed by Panorama, as usual, all contained of English subtitles, including the latest releases i.e. 'For Better, For Worse' and 'Devotion'.

Once again, Panorama ensure all Cathay titles have both Chinese and English subtitles.

Thank you for your message and have a nice day!
