| Does anyone know the difference between the extended cut and the director's cut? Is it a single 2 minute scene, lots of tiny snips, or something in between? Thanks. | |

| It adds a verse of Piddle Twiddle and Resolve and the reprise of Lee's of Old Virginia. Probably more than two minutes proper but with rounding and such on running times comes across that way And I believe the laserdisc cut is closer to 180 minutes with other elements that were in horrible shape so the laser disc version can't be released in HD |

| Wonderful. It's like the boxed set of Close Encounters of the Third Kind, with every iteration. For a beloved musical with a complex history of controversial cuts, terrific restoration news. | |

| It just might! Fathom Events just held 50th Anniversary screenings of The Godfather, and coming this week it's "Lady Sings the Blues." | |
