French and Germans discs are 25fps (1080i MBAFF, so actually progressive but BD doesn't support true 25p)
German disc has the same colours and maybe [/i]slightly[/i] less compression overall, has 10Mbps more bitrate (deleted the caps by mistake, no reason to redo them)
No subs on the French and German discs

It looks like both came from the same source, but the European discs have much more natural colours.
Are these correct though?

Re: Farewell My Concubine - BD-CH vs. BD-FR/DE
Looks like the chinese BD shares a similar scheme to the old Korean DVD and the European transfer is similar to the old US DVD? At the time I recall there being complaints over how yellowy-green the Korean transfer was in relation to the US, but I don't think anyone backed up their complaints with any authoritative evidence as to how the film was supposed to the look.
Personally I'm inclined to distrust the look of the chinese Blu-ray, setting colour scheme aside it looks like shit with the contrast boosting and also too many HK/Chinese transfers seem to get hit by a yellow filter in HD anyway.

I'm much happier with the euro transfer myself for those reasons. It still has the bright lighting but without the murky yellowness.
