Interesting Benoit, thank you ...
THE SARAGOSSA MANUSCRIPT has to be the only picture revived and re-popularized completely by mistake! Jerry Garcia got it mixed up with MACARIO, which resulted in new releases, Fillmore West-style posters, the whole shot. When he finally describes it, he's talking about MACARIO, which his description fits to a "T". Now that's funny.
The good result of all this is that SARAGOSSA has a new lease on life.
I'm forwarding your note to Darren Gross, who wrote the liner notes for SARAGOSSA on the image disc and may have some info about your cut scene .... Thanks!

Wow, this was some bump. 
I'm glad the movies I listed almost four years ago still pass muster. I could also add Satantango.

I'll throw out Joe vs. The Volcano It may not rank up there with the likes of Lynch or Gilliam but what seems like a low budget mediocre film turns into a complex mutli-layered story on repeat viewings.

Primer
The densely layered plot, plus the way what's revealed in the second half colors what happened in the fist half, make multiple viewers a practical must.
Avalon (2001)
Multiple viewers aren't really needed to understand the plot of this film, but it does give you a lot to think about.
