'Alexander' Cut Coming to HD-DVD, Blu-ray in 2007
December 18, 2006
Warner Home Video has announced 'Alexander Revisited: The Unrated Final Cut' will be available on DVD February 27, with both HD-DVD and Blu-ray versions following sometime later in the year.
The new cut adds 45 minutes of filler and explicit material to the theatrical version. Jeffrey Baker, Warner senior VP and general manager of theatrical catalog, commented to VideoBusiness.com, "Most director’s cuts and special editions are typically two to 10 minutes longer, and here we have [an extra] 45 minutes. Oliver really wanted to show the viewer what these battle scenes were really like, and the extended scenes of the battles give you the realism and sheer horror of them. There are [also] salacious scenes, heterosexual and homosexual, which tell quite a different version of the story than what we saw in theaters."
