MODERATORS
It was my favorite movie for a long time. The various cuts that exist are completely different in significant ways. The studios mandated a 'happy ending' version that really ruins the whole story.
The director's cut is very dark indeed.
The version I saw seemed like a "happy ending" until it jumped back to what was actually happening outside of the torture victim's mind, ruined credit rating and all.
Ya, the 'Love Conquers All' edit that Gilliam refused to accept ends just before that reveal. It also removes a bunch of other scenes to fit into a TV friendly viewing slot.
