There was a *lot* more footage shot than what eventually ended up in the final cut which, although it is certainly flawed, is at least Lynch's own compromise. As many of you know, when it was re-relased in a longer cut with an animated prologue tacked on, Mr. Lynch took his name off it (director credit went to Alan Smithee).I agree that the special effects have not worn especially well, but they're not terrible, either. It would be great to have a Director's Cut DVD of this, in all its 4-hour (or was it 6-hour?) glory. I suspect that would go a long way towards alleviating the original cut's two main annoyances: all that voice-over, and the extreme telescoping of events in the last 30 minutes.
Much as I am aware of its shortcomings, I still like the movie. How can you resist Sian Phillips? :)
