I have a correction (I think . . .) to a couple of comments:

Correction--
The European release was slightly longer that _Gilliam's_ cut for American
theatrical release, and that is what has been issued on tape. The original
query was about the _producer's_ cut for tv, which substantially changed
the plot, used film not in either of Gilliam's cuts (I think--I'm not
sure about this any more), and which has only been shown a bit on tv;
lately it has disappeared. The whole story is in _The Battle of Brazil_
as I noted in an earlier message. [log in to unmask]
