Hi everybody,

I noticed you are talking about the "Director's Cut" of Caligula.

You will find this recent interview with Tinto Brass interesting:

Thanks for that link. This interview is very interesting, especially the part where Tinto Brass ackkowledges that if he were given the opportunity to go back and re-cut the film properly to meet his vision, he would do it. I would be very interested if that ever happened. Weirder things have happened, but I'd be pretty surprised if this ever actually came to pass.

By the way, anybody interested in the film should download the interviewer's book on the film, "Caligula - Reconstruction, analysis, and it's place in Tinto Brass' oevre". It's a whopping 107 page book on the film in it's various edits, and though I have not yet read it, seems like a very in-depth analysis of the film. The web address for his book is given on the youtube interview, and the pdf is available free for download.
