The other thing about the Director's Cut is we finally got to see just how good Béatrice Dalle's performance was.
It boils my piss when you see Director Cuts of films and realise just how many films have been butchered over the years by anonymous fuds for the sake of a few bucks.
She turned in a stunning performance, as did Jean-Hugues Anglade, and the Director's Cut gave them both plenty of room to shine. I’m just not sure that I would’ve initially seen it as a 3-hour film... I was an impatient 20-year old!

But yes, “butchered” is exactly right, sadly.
