After a black screen, chapter card III appears. 8.7 sec
61:00 / 68:21-68:25 As Stan stands at his father's bedside, there is another brief vision in which Stan, as a child, runs after his father in a hallway and grabs him by the shoulder. 3.5 sec
Alternative / Additional material in the theatrical version 77:56-77:58 / 85:21-85:35 While in the theatrical version Bruno only asks “You all right?” off-screen and Molly remains in view throughout, the Director's Cut switches to Bruno. He also adds: “It's all I wanna know.” Director's Cut 11.8 sec longer
78:12 / 85:49-85:56 Bruno replies to “And to everybody?” with “Yeah, sure.” 6.9 sec
85:00 / 92:43-92:45 Zeena is visible for a little longer and she looks down at the floor in shame. 1.8 sec
Here, as well as at the beginning of the following scene (Bruno gets food delivered to his room), the score or background music has been changed. In the theatrical version, there is a smooth transition from the previous scene, while in the director's cut, a new track begins.
Director's Cut 85:12 / 92:57-93:12 Same scene: Only in the Director's Cut does Stan join in and charm Bruno with a gift of cigars. Stan: “When you're done with that, try one of these, hand-rolled. Honest stuff. And if you like one, you can have the whole box.” Bruno: “Thanks, Stan.” Stan: “Still with the ten-in-one?” 14.2 sec
85:14 / 93:14 The next shot is slightly longer. In the Director's Cut, Zeena can be heard saying off-screen: “Haven't seen Clem in over a year.” 0.5 sec Additional material in the theatrical version 85:17-85:20 / 93:17 Major Mosquito and Molly dance a little earlier in the theatrical version. This may have something to do with the still different song in the background, which made this fit better in the rhythm. + 3.1 sec
87:15 / 95:12-95:15 After Stan points out the maps he has corrected, Zeena is seen looking dejected again before the close-up of the maps. 2.8 sec
Additional material in the theatrical version 87:19-87:20 / 93:19 The next scene begins a little earlier in the theatrical version. + 1.2 sec
Alternative / Additional material in the theatrical version 87:52-88:25 / 95:50-96:28 The way Stan responds to the photo of his “client's” son is initially edited differently and shown with alternative takes for a while. In the theatrical version, the camera pulls back and Stan says: “He died suddenly. But he wants you to know that he was in no pain.”
In the Director's Cut, there is a long shot and other close-ups. Here, Stan says: “This is a touch indelicate. Pains me to say this.” Mrs. Kimball: “Mr. Carlisle, please, what is it?” Stan now involves the husband: "He needs to clear the air, so to speak. He, uh, says that... Charles, you encouraged him to enlist." Charles Kimball stammers: “I...” This is followed by alternative takes with the first words, which also appear in the theatrical version and are then continued over an identical shot over the woman's shoulder.
Director's Cut 5 sec longer Additional material in the theatrical version 88:39 / 96:42 Stan holds his finger up a little longer in the theatrical version. + 0.8 sec Alternative / Additional material in the theatrical version 98:10-98:15 / 106:12-107:56 In the theatrical version, the camera zooms in on Stan a little longer at the end of the scene.
In the Director's Cut, the same comments can be heard in the distance at the beginning, but here the scene is resolved in even greater detail. First, more discussion can be heard quietly and muffledly in the distance about why the lie detector did not register anything with Stan. Grindle talks briefly with Stan and threatens him, but also tears up an arrest warrant issued for Stan in front of his eyes. Here he reveals to Stan that he has his own agenda for him. Grindle: “You may have fooled everyone else, but you can stop pretending now. 'Cause I think I know what's at work here. This is a warrant for your arrest, signed and sealed by Judge Kimball... at my request. Because now I know that your gift comes from him. He has delivered you to me. Understand? To save me.” Stan: “Could I have a glass of water, please?” Grindle snaps his fingers at his assistant.
Director's Cut 98.4 sec (= 1:38 min) longer 106:55 / 116:36-116:58 The camera movement towards the gate is a little longer and, with a soft cross-fade, you can then see Stan making a drawing of it. 21.6 sec
Alternative / Additional material in the theatrical version 107:05-107:08 / 117:08-117:18 In the theatrical version, the lock is visible outside for a little longer.
In contrast, the Director's Cut has an additional short scene in which Stan holds a key up to a lock inside.
Director's Cut 7.2 sec longer 133:13 / 143:23-143:36 One last chapter card. 13.5 sec
134:06 / 144:30-144:35 Between the shots of the old man on the bed and Stan, the Director's Cut has another short dream sequence in which the old man turns around and now has the same mutated eye as Clem's embryo. 5.1 sec
Alternative / Additional material in the theatrical version 134:24-134:55 / 144:53-144:55 In the theatrical version, Stan stands up in the same shot and walks to the back of the room to the fireplace.
In the Director's Cut, however, the first shot at the fireplace begins a moment earlier.
Theatrical version 28.7 seconds longer Note on the credits: Here, too, the (identical) credits are shown in yellow instead of black and white in the Director's Cut. Slipcase and Digipak cover of the UK 4K UHD Blu-ray set:
