I got it from DV-depot. Haven`t watched it yet. I would imagine its 49 minutes better than Apocalypse Now though, which is one of the best movies ever made. :/

Or 49 minutes worse!!

Maybe it`s not good enough to be in the Top 100 Films?

It was in the top 100. Mind you, that was so long I don`t blame people for falling asleep :D

I can`t imagine how 49 minutes if sence including sex that got cut for its salaciousness could make it a worse movie. ;)

I`ve got both versions, when I`ve got time to watch it I`ll tell ya. I fancy catching it at the cinema if Harry Potter isn`t dominating every screen in the country.

Yep it was in the top 100...about number 15 like the man says. It`s not my favourite film but it was funny when they talked about getting Brando in to do his part. At first he refused and seemed like he couldn;t be arsed. He finally said he`d do it if he could say any old stuff - no script. So they let him.
