interestingly, the print that TCM aired appears to be the US trunscated 115min version - I'll check again, but since the European 120min version opens at the AFI for a week this coming Friday - I just might have to see this on the big screen and just delete my recording of the film from off of my DV-R. I would guess to say that Paramount is still holding out on the DVD release before it's theatrical release is complete.
