OVERALL: Draw
BFI release has the added contextual material, but please note it is slightly cut.
A Note About the Versions:
Please note that all of the currently-available DVDs contain a shorter cut of the film that was originally prepared for the American market. The film was originally released to British cinemas with a running time of around 138 mins, and this longer cut has been released on VHS in the UK (by Connoisseur in 1992; but this tape suffered 7s of cuts to horsefalls).
For its American release, the film was cut by around 7 minutes, and it is this shorter edit that is available on DVD.
For an overview of the BFI disc, please click on the DVDBeaver link below.
