Two different versions of this film? 108 min & 115 min?

Does anyone know whether there are different edits of this film released on DVD?
Most of the DVDs I have seen list the run time as 108 minutes. However, there is a DVD being sold on Amazon.fr that is described as "version longue - import avec audio Francais VF" with a run time of 115 min.

I am wondering whether this is the exact same edit of the film, in terms of the spoken lines. Could the discrepancy of 7 minutes' difference just be an error? Or were 7 minutes cut to make the 108 minutes version?

Also, IMDb and RottenTomatoes put the runtime at 115 minutes.
French Wikipedia and Allocine.fr put the runtime at 108 minutes.

Amazon.de (German Amazon shop) puts the runtime at 100 min, yet my German DVD says "ca. 110 min" on the cover. Pfff...

But would be very interesting to find out if there is indeed some sort of French "director's cut" in the French shelves!
