Russian movie "Night Watch" from 2004 - original Russian version in HD?

Little update - the animated subs (weird how it didn't seem clear to me earlier) are only for the international version

I've read from a hopefully trustworthy source that the following iTunes release has the animated subs in HD! https://itunes.apple.com/movie/night-wat...d270714543

If anyone here is able to rip that in 1080p losslessly and they are indeed in there it would be great and very worthy of preserving because these animated subs do not exist in any other HD release and are part of what made the movie internationally famous

I thought the animated subs were lost to time

Me too - I was pretty surprised to read they exist on

iTunes Canada is 1hour 54.

that's international running time...

104m is the international version, while 114m (1h54m) is the original one.
On blu-ray.com is possible to find out both versions. Dunno about animated subs, though!
