<![CDATA[Director's Cut?]]>Archived from the IMDb Discussion Forums — Tom Jones

Does anyone know if the 1989 Director's Cut of TOM JONES has ever been released on video or DVD, or been aired on TV or cable? It actually runs 7 minutes SHORTER than the original theatrical version, because Tony Richardson trimmed several parts that he thought were unneccesary, thereby tightening the pace. I'd really like to have a copy of this version if it's out there.

Yes, it's strange that they'd prefer to release a shorter version instead of a longer one, when the trend nowadays is to release extended cuts. Very faulty logic here.
This world is a comedy to those that think, a tragedy to those that feel.

The "Director's Cut" was released on VHS. I bought a copy when it came out.
I prefer the original (longer) version and would prefer to have the version that Won the Academy Award.
