As far as movies I ashamed of myself for having not seen them yet:VertigoThe Devil and Daniel WebsterThe Pink Panther (original)Clerks (I just saw the sequel at the theater last weekend too!)The Color Purple (I swear it has nothing to dowith the fact that Williams didn't score it!)

Ollie 1,059 Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 I believe I've seen all of the films listed above. I really can't say there are films I'm embarrassed to admit I haven't watched. There are just certain films I'm not really interested in seeing nor do I have the time to seek out every "must see" film according to critics.

Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Isn't the Original Uncut Version the mini series?I always understood Petersen made a six episode mini-series that was received so well it was truncated and released as a movie.BBC aired the mini series last year, but unfortunately, I missed it (although I did see a small piece of it when I was channel surfing).

The movie (the normal "short" version) was received so well that Wolfgang decided to use all (or most) of his footage for a miniseries, which came 4 years later. The Director's Cut came out after the miniseries. The Original Uncut Version should be the complete miniseries presented as one feature-length film.
