[REL] The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane (1976)

[Night457]

Not dubbed, but live-recorded sound with the exception of any needed audio retakes. Just to nitpick.

But HOLY CRAP I WAS WRONG!! It was NOT a Hollyweird production but a Canadian & French coproduction and according to Wikipedia filmed mostly in Quebec. Some of it was filmed in Maine and it supposedly takes place in Maine. (The policeman's car has a Maine license plate.) By all rights it OUGHT to have a French dub, and Jodie should have been fluent enough in French by that point to do her own French dubbing for the film, as she has done for many of her French-dubbed movies since then. Was this a missed opportunity or is there a French dub (perhaps with her) hiding out there?

And does this mean I should move the thread from United States to Canada? Both IMDB and Wikipedia agree on Canada ...

EDIT: MOVED, what the heck.

Found a 360p streaming version of the French dub "La petite fille au bout du chemin" and it certainly SOUNDS like it could be Jodie speaking French:

French language interview snippet with Jodie about this movie:


EDIT: I have been downloading the unverified eMule links I posted. I have been assuming that the 12.83Gb "BDRip ru en AC3" file has both Russian dub and original English but I have not yet confirmed it. The 4.25Gb file "Multi.Repack" has not finished downloading for me yet, but I have confirmed that it has both English and French audio and subtitles. The 1.44Gb "YIFY" file is just English.

Thanks for all the clarification and those link AND that cute little video with Jodie interviewing in French. I am happy to see the version I am have recently downloaded has an additional French dub. It does sound like her.

[Night457]

I have updated my RELease post with specifications for all the files because I have them all downloaded complete, and I am sharing them for a limited time anyway.

Now we have the movie in 1080p Original English, in German, Russian, French, and with a commentary by some Internet guys.

[pillowbaker]

Quite the set of releases you're sourcing, Night.

I am currently assisting with souring the 4.25gb eMux release, with French and original audio. The post Night is referring to is here:

Even without the prior post, this has been a popular file in my emule since I downloaded it a couple days ago.

[Night457]

For me too, after the post that is. The other files are too small or too large, this one is just right. The smaller file would probably be much faster torrented on YTS.

What the heck is an eMux I wanna know!

[pillowbaker]

Lol it appears to be the name of the scene release group. But if they are all about smaller "remuxes" with additional audio tracks and subtitles, I'm all about it. A search for emux reveals a number of proper movie releases. Possible association with emule?

[Night457]

Your guess of the Scene release group name is a good one and based on your searches is surely correct. But it is technically not a "remux" because a remux is a copy of the video contents directly from the disc without making it smaller. This is an "encode". Someone here taught me that if additional audio or subtitles are also muxed in from another source then it is a "Hybrid", whether it is a Remux or Encode. I have yet to figure out what a "Repack" is. Another term for Hybrid? Or another term for Encode? Or is it a Version 2 release by the same group name that improves the encoding?

Scene terminology, so crazy! I am also tempted to say "remux" just for adding more audio options even though I know the Scene gives it a different meaning.

I did some looking and there are U.S. and U.K. Blus with the obvious English audio. The French DVD has French or English, German Blus have German or English, the Italian Blu Italian or English, the Japanese Blu Japanese or English, and the Spanish DVD Spanish or English. We have some more audio options to collect!

Repack means for example:

- previous release of the movie contained some errors, glitches;
- subtitles or soundtacks were not ripped properly previously
- since the last release a better source was found

Usually a nfo-file is posted with the new release.

Just like this: https://rlsbb.ru/mccabe-and-mrs-miller- ... mbardiers/

Thank you szijjarto, that makes sense. With all the rules that Scene releases have to follow, I would think one rule should be "Watch your damn file before you release it!" Then they would catch SOME things like 10 minutes of missing video! I rarely see NFO files, but then I generally only see a Scene release after it has been reshared publicly and stripped of USEFUL information like that!

If a better source was found, isn't that just an entirely new Remux or Encode? Movies can get a dozen or more disc versions over the years and the number of encodes I see from just a single released disc far exceeds that. Or is a Scene release group only "allowed" one version, and they have to call a subsequent version a Repack? Or is it just their own choice what to call it?
