[QUOTE=Geoff D;12294419]According to Leon Vitali (Kubrick's personal assistant) they incinerated lots of trims and outtakes years ago. Why would Kubrick do this when he's so fanatical about hoarding everything else? Because once the film was finished to his liking, it was done.

Perhaps Kubrick remembered what happened to Orson Welles' mutilated masterpiece, "The Magnificent Ambersons."
Hitchcock was also famous for "cutting in the camera." Wise directors do it.
