Jag har nyligen tittat på Angelina Jolie thriller Salt på iTunes. Den version jag tittade på var "Extended Edition". Det verkar ha en annorlunda och något mindre trovärdig eller tillfredsställande än den version som släpptes till teatrarna:
Instead of ending with an escape from a helicopter partially aided by the counterespionage officer Peabody, Salt escapes from a hospital, unaided. There are also some differences earlier in how she deals with the nest of Russian agents in their boat base.
Så varför de två olika änden? Och vad är de andra skillnaderna mellan versionerna?
Salt har två olika ändringar på grund av Noyces olika åsikt från producenternas och studionens. Från Wikipedia :
Director Phillip Noyce has said that due to the extensive usage of flashbacks, "there was always going to be a mountain of alternative material that would not fit into the theatrical version." The film ended up having two extra versions, the Director's Cut and the Extended Cut – which Noyce refers to in his audio commentary as the film's original cut – both included on the DVD and Blu-ray Disc deluxe editions.
The Director's Cut was described by Noyce as "my own personal take on the material, free from the politics and restrictions of producers, studio or censorship ratings." Four minutes of film are added, leading to a running time of 104 minutes. More flashbacks are added, and the violence is amped up – for example Mike being drowned rather than shot to death. The ending is also different: in the bunker scene, Winter shoots the President instead of only knocking him unconscious, and a media report during the final scene reports that the new US President had been orphaned on a family visit to Russia, implying he is also a sleeper agent. Noyce has described this ending as "an ending yet just a beginning – and it's an ending that turns the whole story on its head".
