Anyone can tell me what was cut in the American version?

There isn't a thing about the war in that movie. Nor is there much about the ship. Remember, his "storytelling friend" walked off the ship 1933 (if I recall correct).

Btw, I've only seen the 160 version, so I can't say precisely... perhaps tell us what scenes/things you saw and then we fill the blank spots?

There's lots of... well, character-development. "Chats" between the two or 1900 playing piano, either alone in the evening (the scene with the old man "who can hear the voice of the sea") or in the "lower decks" full of people. Or a quite long scene how 1900 plays piano "according to what people look like". Or does the 120 version have the part where 1900 almost goes off the ship? Or... how much of the childhood is shown?

Ahrh... I'm probably not helping. Someone who has seen the both movies should answer this one.
