I remember thinking that the extended Tuco torture scene that was included on the UK DVD (and I think most/all others as an extra) didn't look that bad - but Lee Van Cleef says a line or two that won't have been dubbed into English. If you can pull it off I'd love to see the full length scene in there
I have compared the two torture sequences frequently in the last couple of weeks, and the only extra line of dialogue is spoken by the guard outside with the band. This will be subtitled on my DVD.
Fistful Of Dollars:
Adding back in the American TV intro as an alternate start would be very slick - is it on the DVD as an extra? I don't remember seeing it.
It's on the special edition DVD
Fistful Of Dynamite:
The UK version cut out several seconds of horses falling/being shot - be good to get that back in, and I don't know if it would be possible but the centre section of the film surrounding the massacre is all horribly out of chronological order to the point of not making sense, I remeber it being explained in one of the documentaries about them losing a torture scene, so this was the best they could do - but might be worth trying to see if you can get it more in order. What extras are on the Danish DVD?
The Danish DVD has all the same extras as the special edition DVDs. It is fully uncut though, as will my DVD when done.
Once Upon A Time In America:
I'm not to hot on the different versions of this one, but I know the DVD version is still missing scenes (some of which if I remember were on a Brazillian laserdisc) - a possible future project.
Love this film, but there were rumours of them restoring another 40-50 minutes. Might wait and see what happens.
Thanks for doing these and keep up the good work! Any rough estimate one when you'll have any done?
