Pirated DVD from Amazon.com?

I bought the Special Edition of Dead Poets Society from Amazon US. When I popped the DVD into my Mac and played it with the default DVD Player, I got this weird Chinese characters on the window title bar.

This is the first time I have seen this. So I'm wondering whether it's a pirated copy. I have seen pirated DVDs that looked like the real McCoy. I don't buy them. In this case, I'm curious. If someone has the same Region Code 1 disc, could you check the window title bar and see if it's some Chinese characters.

Thanks.
