What is with the lack of subtitles? It's infuriating!

I'm watching this, and literally half the dialogue is going untranslated. I'm getting halves of conversations, entire sentences are not being translated. This is unwatchable!

Is there a better version of this that IS translated that I should watch instead? The version I'm watching is from 1997 - Blackhawk Films collection.

I want the doctor to take your picture so I can look at you from inside as well.

Yeah, I agree, it's pretty stupid. Thankfully, I watched this in class where the professor was Italian, and she translated a lot of the un-subbed lines for us. Most of them weren't important, so you're not missing vital information, but it definitely would be better to have them translated.

Film is now available free on youtube with subtitles.
