This all got me thinking, Director’s Cuts have a redeeming quality about them that makes them an important part of movie history. They are artistic statements through and through, whether it’s Sergio Leone releasing his, once butchered, “Once Upon A Time In America” in its original narrative structure to, more recently, Zack Snyder trying to splatter his original vision with a “Batman vs Superman” Snyder’s Cut. Director’s Cuts are a chance for filmmakers to show what they really wanted to achieve on-screen, warts and all. I started to wonder, what are the best ones? Films that started off as mediocre/decent movies, but turned into grand, masterful, personal statements once fully reinstated to their original visions. I found the 10 best examples of movies that had their qualities greatly enhanced by a DC … Kenneth Lonergan’s “Margaret” Ridley Scott’s “Blade Runner” Sergio Leone’s “Once Upon A Time in America” Ridley Scott’s “Kingdom of Heaven” Richard Donner’s “Superman II” Orson Welles’ “Touch of Evil” Francis Ford Coppola’s “Apocalypse Now Redux” Terrence Malick’s “The New World”Ari Aster’s “Midsommar”James Cameron’s “Aliens” What am I missing?
