Hi!

Well, getting other people's fun spoiler as I slowly am, I'll just go on.

I've got the cherished DVD collection now, and, know what, I feel quite disappointed. That is, as an amateur padrinophil I'm thrilled to have got it, sure. But it doesn't add much to my experience. Those extra scenes, sure, are interesting. But I badly miss half of Bonasera's head still.

By the way, from the rather trivial FFC's comments I've got a hint that he wasn't pretty much present when the decision about the DVD edition was made: on one count at least he was surprized to see that some scene wasn't in the movie. So it was with the frame format, too, I guess. Showing this awesome movie cut from above and below, and putting in extra scenes as filmed - that's bad taste.

By the way, there are at least two little extra scenes in the DVD GF I that I can't remember seeing on my PAL VHS 25th anniversary set.

Hold on: now I'm looking for spare time to watch GF II on DVD.

Best regards.

Alexander
