This is a comparison between the German TV version (aired on "Tele 5" in 2007) and the US-DVD released by VCI.
Both versions have a slightly different cut. While the US DVD mainly misses out on scenes that evolve the plot a little further, the German TV version lacks a lot of violence (e.g. brawlings). This also means that both versions have their pros and cons. The US DVD hase a great image quality and also offers the right format (widescreen). However, the english dubbing is not too good, plus the US DVD misses out on quite a lot of plot. The German TV version on the other hand offers quite good voice actors, however, it's shortened and has a wrong aspect ratio. The TV version is (probably) identical to other German releases (both VHS and DVD) by UAP resp. Arcade. The time designations always refer to the US DVD. Whenever the US DVD offers scenes that were cut out of the German version, these parts are marked red. Overall, the German TV version has 10 scenes that were not included in the US DVD version. Overall runtime: 2:46 minutes The US DVD in return offers 8 scenes that are missing in the German TV version. Overall runtime: 3:20 minutes Minor film tears were ignored for this report.

After the men left, Monetero goes to Marisol and says that he doesn't want to make fals prophecies, however, thanks to his wisdom the 300,000 Dollars (in gold bars) are as good as certain.
Then we see the train's chimney.

Then follows a trackign shot of the countryside.
The US version misses out on a dialogue between Monetero and Clayton. Monetero says that it's time to retire, buy a house and all that. Clayton replies that he will get 150,000 Dollars; even though he will have to share it with his men, there still will be enough money left to buy a house. Mentero says that his men won't get any money - he wants to keep every single cent for his aging. Clayton replies that Monetero will probably turn 180 and that his declining years are ensured without his gang. Monetero says that he's not worried, after all, his men are all trained professionals. He's sure that they will cut their own path and one day build their own house (a goal which in his opinion everybody wants to acchieve). Some will acchieve their goals by playing poker, others will do it differently (always depending on line of buisness one is in). He's looking forward to have some more security so that he can indulge in things he wants to have. Clayton jokes about Monetero's wisdom of age and says that one can only envy Monetero because of his serenity. Monetero explains that his serenity comes from a long and satisfied working life.
