    The subtitles are not properly synchronised.

      Yes, I noticed it, Simon, they are ahead of what they say in many parts but unfortunately since it’s not the same for the whole film (in other parts sync is fine) it requires line by line re-synch and it takes a lot of time.
      If you want I can upload the subtitle file and you can try fixing it yourself, then I could re-upload the film with the improved subtitles.

      Let me know.
      Jon.
