Is this documentary in English (Theater Version)?

Hi...I'm looking to purchase this on DVD because I am a huge Senna fan and haven't seen it yet. I just want to know if this documentary is in Portuguese with English subtitles or if it's in English? I'm looking for it on Ebay and have been confused by the different descriptions. One auction that seems pretty official says that the theater version is in Portuguese, and the "English" version of the DVD is actually a DVD commentary with the director. Thanks for the help.

I can't help with the DVD/Blu-ray as I've not watched my copy yet, but the film itself has both English and Portuguese scenes (and at least one small part in Japanese). I would assume that the Portuguese scenes are subtitled, the details on the blu-ray say "Subtitles: English"

Either way, FWIW, the first time I saw this I watched it without any subtitles at all, it was still a stunning and riviting documentary to watch. I didn't even feel like it needed subtitles, I still got the "story" that was being told.
