Running Time?


The running time I've seen listed everywhere for this film is 2 hours and 35 minutes yet the version released on DVD is almost an hour shorter. What gives with the chopped down time and does the full version still exist?

I wish it did. I saw the longer version in a preview in Oakbrook, Illinois. I thought it was a passable remake of the Jimmy Stewart film, and found that the Billy Jack character was a better stand-in for Mr. Smith then I thought he would be. When I saw this shorter version on DVD, I was extremely disappointed. They pretty much cut the guts out of the film.
