Didn't George Lucas said in a documentary (from the Blu-ray and the 2004 DVD) that the 1971 cut by Warner Bros has the scene with the "freaks" placed at the beggining of the film, by saying "you should put the freaks scene up front"? I think I also remember him saying that it ended up creating an internal joke at American Zoetrope that whenever a studio messed with a director's original cut, they say the studio is "putting the freaks up front".
