MCC has one of the best most moving songs of all time...


And they frigging cut it out?????? What is their problems? When Love is Gone has to be one of the most beautiful, bittersweet songs EVER. I cannot watch this film without the song in it. IDIOTS.

Check eBay and used items on sites like Amazon to find the original 1993 VHS version - the song is still there. We still have our copy and play it plenty. I never knew the song was cut until today!

The DVD has both versions of the movie – the widescreen theatrical version (with "When Love is Gone" cut) and the fullscreen extended edition (with "When Love is Gone" included). Netflix is likely playing the theatrical version (which was not released on VHS, and thus is not the version we have watched countless times), which is why "When Love is Gone" seems to be a hot topic at this forum right now.

I have the first DVD release and it included the song as well. Subsequent releases have it cut again, apparently, according to the trivia section.

Not only that but at the end when Scrooge sings The Love We Found doesn't fit or make sense! Him singing that is a response to Belle's breaking up with him. Without it it seems completely out of place and more than a little random.
