This is the thing: When the film came out in the US, not everyone knew it had been recut. I saw it on its opening showing in Los Angeles and loved it, too, because I had no idea there was some longer version or what the structure of that is. I became obsessed, read everything I could, got a copy of the script, so I could see what was meant to be. And then, of course, Warner Bros. released Leone's version and yes that was a masterpiece. But I still feel to this day that certain moments in the short version work better, especially Elizabeth McGovern on the train pulling down the shade - it's a bit longer and more emotional in the short version.

The longer version of the film has a repulsive scene where one of the gang members decides to interrupt a bank robbery by raping one of the female bank tellers; the rape goes on for a full six minutes in extreme close up, so we don't miss a moment of the woman's suffering. Then the movie proceeds merrily along again, and we're supposed to like the creep that just brutally raped a helpless girl. There's a lot wrong with the mentality of the director Sergio Leone to insist on that scene, to have it go on for that long, and to expect the audience to continue to like this sociopathic rapist afterwards. Either he has contempt for women, the audience, or both.
@martianmanhunter373 жыл бұрын
Wasn't the woman in that scene an accomplice of their crime? She was some sort of masochist who wanted some sexual thrills. I don't know if that scene qualifies as a rape. She even becomes James Woods' lover later in the film. However, De Niro's character does rape his childhood crush in the back seat of the car in a really uncomfortable and pretty long scene so your point still stands. I don't think Leone expected us to like his character afterwards (at least I didn't after the car scene).

If the little boys are bad characters I didn't root for, why would telling me it's Robert Deniro beforehand make me care, it felt like it exploited the fact that Robert deniro is a well liked actor to make you care about these wretched kids but it didn't work on me I just saw it as Robert Deniro in this terrible film with no redeemable characters. Very depressing. Someone tell me why I'm wrong. How is a film like Bergman's Serpents Egg worse than this movie, they both felt equally depressing and unwhole as art pieces. All the bad, in rich detail, but no beauty or good. Maybe it's relying on context of other movies to fill in the gaps? Isn't that by definition an incomplete artistic statement then, just as they say with Bergman's Egg? Painting people as wretched scumbags and nothing else, the only recognizable "good" quality being Robert Deniros face that we like? I don't get it.

Why? It's interesting and it should be included on any Blu-ray release so people can see what was done.

I respect it for historical reasons I like how some bluray editions of blade runner have the theatrical version even though I don't like the original I want the version old audiences got to see to compare to the new one I feel the same about this movie

I've only seen the 4hr version and can only imagine that the shorten version would probably not be worth the time but the 4hr version is not that entertaining either.

Self indulgent movie
@contactgeneralemailforpubl34782 жыл бұрын
Self indulgent long and not very well put together sometimes. The second half is way better than the first. Waste of some great acting. Frustrating because just when you’re about to like it it becomes a little bit juvenile and long-winded and sex/violence does not always make sense or seem necessary to what is happening in the big picture, so you’re about to click the thing off your screen and then here comes some reacting in your hang around again but then you have the same expressed 15 minutes later. It has some good moments but it’s definitely not a classic and there’s something to be said for the acting but it just doesn’t come together well enough. I don’t fully understand why the girl of his dreams goes with someone else who does all the nasty stuff that he does and she turn him down for. Guys are trying to kill him with being in the movie and you’re not sure who they are or who sent them and I don’t mean that in the sense of you have to wait for the payoff I mean that in a sensitive they had no character they’re just angry guys.

They should've split it up into 2 parts like Kill Bill. The early years. Then as adults

Hot take I watched the movie and it sucks. the entire part where they are kids is too long even in the producers cut. Probably would've been a good book or tv series but as a movie its just bad.
