Crouching Tiger hidden Dragon DVD 6.99

I really wanna get in on this, but I want one that had both the Chinese and English versions. Can someone confirm that this one does?
 
Isn't the english dubbing something that can be selected/unselected (like director commentaries) on this DVD?
Or am I wrong?

Edit:
One of the customer reviews below the DVD reads:

Reviewer: Victoria from Tustin, CA USA
The DVD for "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" has both the original Chinese language with English subtitles and voice over in English. The Chinese flow is beautiful, and it is not distracting to read the translation. This film is magestic with sites we can only imagine. The story is complete; Ang Lee is now one of my favorite directors. Watching the battle action in the bamboo trees -- which the actors really did -- is breathtaking. The interviews and project details in the DVD specials is worth the time because you can learn so much about the movie, how it was done, and why.

for those who dont want dubbed, be warned.
Funny thing is, is this different from the first version released? I have this and you can hear in mandarin with subtitle. English dubbed only sounds odd.
 
Maybe it's letting you know it's English dubbed in addition to the original audio track.
 
okay for all you who are anti dubbing... it does come with madarin and english subtitles also...

i personally dont speak any chinese dialects and so i rather the dubbing....

The thing is, much is lost in dubbing. It is much better, IMO to watch a movie with subtitles. I actually watched a movie (Das Boot) with subtitles AND dubbing on at the same time. The dubbing wasn't saying what the subtitles were saying. In fact, some of it was quite different. Subtitles are more accurate because they don't have to try to fit with the movement of the peoples mouthes.
 
It's a DVD. It should have Mandarin, English, French and who knows what else in both dialogue and subtitles. The audio track is decoupled from the video so there shouldn't be any English dubbed "version".
