Copied from trivia section:
"Due to studio pressure, 15 minutes were trimmed from the original running time and a new ending was shot."
Does anyone know weather this is true or just a myth? If it is true wouldn't it be nice to start a petition to bring back the director's cut of the film, 'cause the ending was the only thing that let down the film in my opinion?
I like the ending. He gets his wife back, but at the cost of losing the girl.
Nowhere in "Roman on Polanski" or the Polanski "Interviews" book is there mention of the claim from the IMDb trivia section.
There's a lot of bogus info floating around the IMDb. Someone thinks Woody Allen is in the opening shot of "Melinda and Melinda" while it's just a middle aged guy with glasses...
Hey Revo - can I call you Revo?
I have a photo that was shown in a lot of French film magazines, on which you can see Ford and Seigner holding hands in the paris Metro, at the Porte de Versailles station if I remember correctly. She is wearing the same leathery outfit as she also does in another scene of the film, and I believe that there was a sequence where her cars has something wrong and they end up taking the subway... Or a chase sequence and they try to not be followed anymore by going and hiding in the subway???
I am myself very curious regarding this sequence - or any "deleted" sequence from this film - as I consider this film to be one of the greatest of all time...
There IS this photo of them in the Metro, and I don't think they would have went and closed a whole station - or opened it after hours either - just for a promo photoshoot. I could find it and scan it if you really want... Well I think I could.
