it is tough to find with english subtitles

not really - https://www.opensubtitles.org/en/subtitles/7946045/brotherhood-of-the-wolf-en
if you download an SRT file and place it in the same folder, vlc will pick it up. or add it to the mux using mkvtoolnix.

players like kodi feature automatic subs downloads from opensubtitles.

reply

how does that work?

reply

a) manual download:
you dl the srt file (better take a couple of versions) from opensubtitles using a browser.

I. playback in VLC:
place the file in the same folder as the movie file and enable the subtitle in context menu.

-or-

II. playback in kodi:
place the file in the same folder and rename it to "moviename.en.srt" (assumung moviename.mkv, moviename.mp4, ... as the movie file's name)

-or-

III. playback almost everywhere:
drag and drop the movie container and the srt file into "MKVtoolnix GUI", a simple muxing tool (no transcoding, no quality loss) and press "convert" to merge it with the original movie file. the result plays practically everywhere, where the original file was playable.


b) automatic downloads of subtitles:
install kodi and open the movie (it does not matter if it's added to your library, opening the file in its directory is enough). then pause and open the subtitles menu. if it's for the first time, the list of subtitles plugins will be empty but they can be installed from within this menu.
the automatic downloader will name the file exactly like a#II.
The opensubtitles plugin is more or less the only one to require a (free) login/api key, others work without registrations. But for English language subtitles, opensubtitles is the place to go first.



general hints:
BD and DVD versions often have a slightly different runtime / speed. when watching a DVD rip, better try to download an older subtitle, for BD better stick to newer contribs (or with 720p/1080/2160p in the name).

A little late, apologies Bro, but it's streaming on freevee now with English dubs. Hope this helps.
It's pretty good, I'm watching it now, it's based on a real series of killings in 1700s in rural France, probably by an abnormally large wolf.

Nice sets and costumes, fine cast, pretty fun.

I saw it in theaters when it came out. I liked it.

reply

I still don't think it's had a blu-ray release or been available digitally. It's a great movie and I'd gladly upgrade my dvd if it got a new release. Maybe one of the boutique labels could get a hold of the rights.

There was a 2011 BD release.

I was lucky enough to have seen this in theaters when it was brand new. I loved it then and still do now!

reply

More than 15 years ago. Don't remember much about it. I remember seeing cardboard cutouts at the multiplex, which was very unusual for a French film.
