The US release has two versions of the film and an exclusive interview.
The French release has two versions of the film with differing exclusive extras.
Note there are three versions of the film:
- The original director's cut (101 mins) and is non-linear.
- An unauthorized, shortened, re-edited theatrical cut by editor Fima Noveck (81 mins) that attempts to put the narrative into a more coherent order by reducing the complexity of the narrative by coding the instances of non-linearity as flashbacks; and reducing their frequency and length.
- The hybrid cut (91 mins) combining elements of the director's cut and the theatrical cut which maintains the jumbled time frame and comes across as a leaner and more abstract version of the original. -
