Can I Get It in the Original French?

I had the soundtrack. Bought it right after seeing the movie in '66, first time I ever bought a movie soundtrack! Twenty years and some later, I didn't have the LP anymore, but I saw the movie was out on VHS. I rented the tape and got all set to see the movie again and hear those great songs. But the movie was dubbed! Even the songs! It was an awful let down...I'd already mentally bought tape for my collection. Now another twenty years have passed and the movie is out on DVD. I saw the word "dubbed" at the Blockbuster website and ignored it. But today I looked at their listing to see if they perhaps had another version. They didn't, but the description of the DVD they offer was "Language: English/French". In the hope that it might be a dubbed-on-one-side-original-on-the-other recording, I added to my rental queue. If it's not the original version, do you (any of you) know of a DVD in the original French, or even a CD of the French soundtrack? I'd greatly appreciate some input here. Thanks.

I need to know where to get the original with English subtitles, as well. Had seen it on TV years ago.
Let me know if you locate a source.
Thanks much.

I have the Warner DVD for "Un homme et une femme". The audio is in french and it contains english, french and spanish subtitles.

I didn't know about an "only-english-audio" DVD for this movie until now.

But as I¿ve said before my copy is in french with subtitles.

It's recently been screened on TV in South Africa - the French soundtrack with English sub-titles. This says to me that it will be quite easily as a DVD. I always wanted to se the film again, so I put it onto a DVD to look at it later, a bit more critically. We were meant to see the sequel this evening, but it wasn't broadcast, for some or other reason. Looking at the comments on IMDB, this may not be such a great loss. The original was and still is timeless in my view.

TCM just showed it in French with English subtitles. They will probably have it again.
