In order to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the film, the director's cut has the opportunity to be retrieved and released. If there is a chance, I would like to see the whole picture. Classical music is different from folk music, the latter responds to reality, but the former is detached, it...

Very unwelcome film, didactic and happy ending. There are only a few scenes where the camera movement shows Wells' soul. In addition, is this 88-minute version messed up? The rhythm is very jumpy.

7.5 After Citizen Kane, Ao Fatt created a more serious and darker plot, showing the whole picture of the decline of the nobility in the 20th century. Unfortunately, only this 88-minute edited version was left in the film. The last twenty How many minutes have been cut, and the plot is advancing to the point of flying. Even so, I can still see the powerlessness and dilapidation caused by George's arrogance, which is enough to prove Ao Fatty's excellence. I hope the 148-minute first cut version can be found and see the light again???

[cut off by George]
George: Automobiles are a useless nuisance.
Maj. Amberson: What did you say George?
George: I said automobiles are a useless nuisance. Never amount to anything but a nuisance and they had no business to be invented.
Jack: Of course you forget that Mr. Morgan makes them, also did his share in inventing them. If you weren't so thoughtless, he might think you were rather offensive.
Eugene: I'm not sure George is wrong about automobiles. With all their speed forward they may be a step backward in civilization. May be that they won't add to the beauty of the world or the life of the men's souls, I'm not sure. But automobiles have come and almost all outwards things will be different because of what they bring. They're going to alter war and they're going to alter peace. And I think men's minds are going to be changed in subtle ways because of automobiles. And it may be that George is right. May be that in ten to twenty years from now that if we can see the inward change in men by that time, I shouldn't be able to defend the gasoline engine but agree with George - that automobiles had no business to be invented.

Eugene: Fanny, I wish you could have seen Georgie's face when he saw Lucy. You know what he said to me when we went into that room? He said, "You must have known my mother wanted you to come here today, so that I could ask you to forgive me." We shook hands. I never noticed before how much like Isabel Georgie looks. You know something, Fanny? I wouldn't tell this to anybody but you. But it seemed to me as if someone else was in that room. And that through me, she brought her boy unto shelter again. And that I'd been true at last, to my true love.
