Between the Spanish and Paramount editions.
Virtually identical bar regional language variations, just avoid the 2013 Warner Archive release as it's a DVD-R (part of the brief Warner's distribution of Paramount titles).
NOTE:
The film is reputed to have premiered at 205 minutes and then been recut by Paramount - due to disastrous critical and preview responses - to the 177 minute version with intermission, 171 minutes without. 35mm versions were screened with a mono downmix of the 6-track stereo seen on 70mm blowup engagements. It's assumed that the 5.1 and 2.0 stereo tracks are derived from the 6-track. -
CUTS:
- R0 America- Warner Home Video - No cuts - Original R-rated version with intermission (177:11 NTSC)
- R0 Spain- IDA Films - No cuts - Original R-rated version but without the intermission (163:16 PAL)
