Title: Beware - 60 minutes cut from U.K. version
Product review: I have not seen this yet. It gets excellent reviews on Amazon.co.uk.I will be buying it from Amazon.co.uk. The U.K. version is described there as lasting 360 minutes. The U.S. version is described here as lasting 300 minutes.American studios do this kind of thing to DVDs quite often. See, e.g., "Vietnam, A Television History," in which two out of the thirteen original PBS episodes were quietly excluded from the DVD, and other episodes were edited down from the originals. The studios often fill up the saved time on the DVDs with advertisements. It tells us a lot about what the studios think about their U.S. viewers.As you probably know, you will need a mutli-region DVD player to watch a DVD purchased from the U.K.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
