Running Time


Does anyone know the correct running time for this movie? According to a movie guide I have, it is 95 minutes. But the DVD I bought (in the UK) is only 80 minutes long. Is there a longer version out there? If so, where can I get it from? What happens in the other 15 minutes? It seems a very long time difference!

I'm pretty sure 80 min. is right. It's definately not 95. My DVD came from the website.

It wouldn't explain a 15 minute difference, but any DVD/Video always has a shorter running time than a cinema film, even if nothing has been cut.

This is because a film is run at 24 frames per second, whereas DVD/Video runs at 25 frames per second. Your mind doesn't notice the minute difference in run speed when you are watching, but it does mean that the film loses a seconds running time every 25 seconds. This equates to about 4 minutes shorter over a 100 minute film.

I prefer Imaginality to reality.
