Here's a fun fact. There are about 1:37 seconds of unique footage in the U.S. cut (not just the ending). Among others, we have:
* B/W Extra shot of boy with fishing pole
* B/W Shot of old-man pumping air without talking (cont)
* B/W Shot of both old-man and boy pumping air wide angle (cont)
* Painting the apartment and talking on the phone
* Replacement shot of the girl stirring in bed
* Hero turns to face girl on the boat near the end
* Girl looks at hero on boat near the end (cont)
* Replacement end sequence
Additionally, all titles were changed to English and the opening credits were recreated. Color timing is far different in the U.S. cut as well.
