116 min. version ???


I watched Accattone for the first time last week on TCM (Mon.Oct.15 2013) and noticed a running time of 116min. as opposed to the 120min. length listed here on IMDb. Under the 'alternate versions' section it says that the VHS & DVD produced by Water Bearer Films are listed as running 116 minutes, "suggesting that the print is 4 min. shorter than the original release". The print they showed on TCM gave no info as to it's source either before of after the film. I found it odd that it opened with the title (no Janus Films or other production or distribution info). Anyone know anything about this version, is it missing any scenes?

----Thanks for any info,
Gary
