Definitely skim this thread from the beginning (if you haven't been following it). Lots of good info scattered throughout. However, for the short-form, I'd recommend ..

.. the Criterion laserdisc for the Kubrick-supervised transfer ..

.. with this releases caveat (ouch!) ..

.. the MGM DVD (which is supposed to come with a booklet) for it's awesome widescreen (letterbox) motion menus ..

.. and the Blu-ray for it's general clean-up & superior resolution.
