I’d say Friedkin going back in on this one is HIGHLY unlikely. He died in August 2023.
Oh!I never knew he passed away my bad. I guess he atleast got to share Sorcerer out more internationally in his preffered edit.
Still It seems more could have been done with that release although it was never a major hit, it does stand the test of time which many of Friedkins other works do. I want to get a hold of that babysitter film he did of like folk horror tale. Heard it’s a bit of a weak offering but never seen it.
No, this is not a list of deleted scenes I want to see. It’s a list of films that could do with an alternate version or multiple alternate versions in an effort to either uncensor or improve and have more extensive special features on the making of the film or about the subject matter. This was how home video was revolutionized and this is how it should be maintained. With special intetest in the art and stories of it’s creation.
These Boutique labels need to be given more freedom and creative license to make better films too aswell as better quality. Even if only limited to bonus features or an option to view an alternate cut in some circumstances… Obviously without erasing the original.
