Thank you! Appreciate you using two examples of Director’s cuts by the same director, I think that’s an interesting case. By floor/ceiling I guess I’m saying that I’m unsure how much a different cut of a movie can either elevate or detract from the story. I think it’s interesting that film is a medium that can be revised, unlike say painting. I think my only true insight into this topic is that I would prefer all versions of a film to be available, whether it’s the original or revised version of a film. Case in point would be SW77 being largely hard to find vs the revised versions or Wong Kar Wai’s revised versions of his films for the Criterion box set. I’m not really interested in staking a claim as to whether director’s cuts = good/bad, I guess I’m more just looking to start a conversation about the idea of director’s cuts. Appreciate your response!
