What was cut from the original UK release?
Can anyone tell me what the 2 seconds cut from the UK theatrical and VHS release was? That's the only form in which I've seen it.
shareI'm just guessing here - the severing of the penis is probably the most likely shot to be censored.
"My name is Paikea Apirana, and I come from a long line of chiefs stretching all the way back to the Whale Rider."
Yes, that's the one. The first copy I had was an extremely poor VHS recording off Australian TV but the severing of the penis was there. I eventually managed to tape it off British TV and that scene was cut.
