Only the latter version survives, at the Library of Congress. | [165][166] | Horse Feathers | Norman Z. McLeod | Marx Brothers | The only existing prints of this film are missing several minutes, due to both censorship and damage. | Veiled Aristocrats | Oscar Micheaux | Lorenzo Tucker | All that remains is the trailer and fragments of two reels. | Walking Down Broadway | Erich von Stroheim | James Dunn, Boots Mallory, ZaSu Pitts | Withheld from release and re-edited as Hello, Sister!, the original version remains lost. | [167] | 1933 | Deluge | Felix E. Feist | Sidney Blackmer | For many years, Deluge was thought to be a lost film, but a print dubbed in Italian was found in a film archive in Italy in the late 1980s. Before the discovery, the only part of the film known to have survived was the impressive footage of the tidal wave destroying New York City, which was used in the Republic Pictures serials Dick Tracy vs. Crime, Inc. (1941) and King of the Rocket Men (1949). In 2016, a 35mm nitrate dupe negative with the English soundtrack was discovered. A 2K scan restoration was made by Lobster Films, and this restoration was picked up for a limited theatrical re-release by Kino Repertory, and a home media release by Kino Lorber Studio Classics in February 2017. | My Lips Betray | John Boles | The sixth reel is assumed to be lost. | The Testament of Dr. Mabuse | Fritz Lang | Otto Wernicke | The German premiere ran 124 minutes. The modern restored version is 121 minutes long. | 1935 | The Burgomeister | Harry Southwell | Janet Ramsey Johnson | Only one sequence remains. | [168] | Devdas | P.C. Barua | P.C. Barua, Jamuna Barua | Of this classic Bengali film, only 60% still survives. | The Mystery of the Mary Celeste | Denison Clift | Bela Lugosi, Shirley Grey, Arthur Margetson, Edmund Willard | 18 minutes were cut from the film, and the only surviving print is the shortened re-release, retitled Phantom Ship. | 1936 | The Man Behind the Mask | Michael Powell | Hugh Williams, Jane Baxter, Maurice Schwartz | The surviving American release, titled Behind the Mask, is a cut version of the UK film. | [169] | Things to Come | William Cameron Menzies | The most complete existing version of this film runs 96 minutes, compared with its original running time of 117 minutes upon submission to the BBFC. A reconstructed version using extant film, production stills and extracts from the script is available on DVD. | 1937 | Lost Horizon | Frank Capra | Ronald Colman | Capra's initial 210-minute version was cut down to 132 minutes after a preview screening of the film went badly. In his autobiography, Capra claims to have personally destroyed the first two reels. Subsequent re-releases were further edited to downplay allegedly communist elements, as well as hints of swinging and various scenes which were felt to present the native children in too positive a light. While a complete soundtrack of the original 132-minute release has survived, no complete print is known to exist. A restoration substituted still photos and individual frames for the seven minutes of missing footage. One minute of footage has been found, and added to a Blu-ray release of the film. | 1938 | Show Business | A. R. Harwood | Bert Matthews | Only rushes from a single minor scene are left. | [168] | Thank Evans | Roy William Neill | Max Miller, Hal Walters, Albert Whelan | A hundred feet (just over a minute) of footage was found as a result of a 1992 British Film Institute campaign to locate missing movies. | [164] | 1939 | Tsuchi (Earth) | Tomu Uchida | Mieshi Bando, Donguriboya, Masako Fujimura, Akiko Fujimura, Mari Ko | A seriously compromised print of Earth was discovered in Germany in 1968. It suffers from decomposition and is missing its first and last reel, and includes German subtitles. The original film was 142 minutes long; this version runs 93 minutes. A 119-minute version of the film, with subtitles in Russian, was discovered in Russia around the turn of the millennium. It too is missing the last reel. | [170] |
1940s Year | Film | Director | Cast | Notes | Ref | 1940 | Fantasia | Various Directors | Deems Taylor | For its 60th Anniversary DVD release in 2000, Disney's manager of film restoration, Scott MacQueen, supervised a restoration and reconstruction of the original 125-minute roadshow version of Fantasia. The visual elements from the Deems Taylor segments that had been cut from the film in 1942 and 1946 were restored, as was the intermission. However, the original nitrate audio negatives for the long-unseen Taylor scenes had deteriorated several decades earlier, so Disney brought in voice actor Corey Burton to dub all of Taylor's lines. Although it was advertised as the "original uncut" version, the Sunflower edit in Beethoven's Symphony No. 6 made in 1969 was maintained. In this version, it was accomplished by digitally zooming in on certain frames to avoid showing the black centaurette character. | 1941 | This Man Is Dangerous | Lawrence Huntington | James Mason | Included on the BFI's "75 Most Wanted" list of missing British feature films, a dubbed Italian copy has surfaced. | [171][172] | 1942 | Berdjoang | Rd. Ariffien | Mohamad Mochtar | A single reel was shown at the Yamagata International Documentary Film Festival; the rest remains lost. | [173] | 1943 | Sanshiro Sugata | Akira Kurosawa | Sambas | According to the Toho Studios introduction to the 1952 re-release of this film, 1,845 feet (17 minutes) were cut in 1944 due to government demands. The missing footage could not be found for the 1952 re-release and is considered lost. | 1948 | Bless 'Em All | Robert Jordan Hall | Hal Monty, Max Bygraves | Placed on the BFI 75 Most Wanted list of lost films. A cut-down version titled Be Kind Sergeant was later offered for sale on eBay. A two-and-a-half minute trailer also survives. | [174][175] | 1949 | Somewhere in Politics | John E. Blakeley | Frank Randle, Tessie O'Shea, Josef Locke | According to the British Film Institute, only a print of an "18-minute short from the film, entitled Full House", is known to exist. | [176] |
1950s Year | Film | Director | Cast | Notes | Ref | 1951 | The Idiot | Akira Kurosawa | Setsuko Hara, Masayuki Mori, Toshiro Mifune, Yoshiko Kuga | Kurosawa wanted the original 265-minute version to be shown in two parts. When the studio balked, the film was cut to 180 minutes. After the poorly received premiere, the picture was cut, against Kurosawa's wishes, to 166 minutes. No print of the 265-minute version is known to exist; Kurosawa supposedly spent a week looking through the studio archives for the original cut when he returned to Shochiku studios 40 years later to make Rhapsody in August. | The Red Badge of Courage | John Huston | Audie Murphy, Bill Mauldin, Douglas Dick, Royal Dano | Huston had high hopes for the movie, even considering the original two-hour cut of the film as the best he had ever made as a director. After a power struggle at the top of MGM management, the film was cut from a two-hour epic to the 69-minute version released to theaters, in response to its alleged universally disastrous previews. It was never released as an "A" feature but was shown as a second-feature "B" picture. Both Huston and star Audie Murphy tried unsuccessfully to purchase the film so that it could be re-edited to its original length. Huston did not waste any time fighting over it, as he was focused on the pre-production of his next picture, The African Queen. The studio claimed that the cut footage was destroyed, probably in the 1965 MGM vault fire. In 1975, MGM asked Huston whether he had an original cut of the film, which the studio wanted to re-release. He had actually struck a 16mm print, but by that time, it had been lost. Unless an undiscovered copy exists of the uncut version, The Red Badge of Courage will never be viewed as Huston intended. | 1953 | Captain Thunderbolt | Cecil Holmes | Grant Taylor, Charles Tingwell | The Australian National Film and Sound Archive has what it believes is the 53-minute version edited for television, but is still searching for the full 69-minute original. | [177] | 1954 | Southwest Passage | Ray Nazarro | Joanne Dru | Initially released in 3-D, this feature only survives in 2-D. | A Star Is Born | George Cukor | Judy Garland, James Mason | reason=This statement needs to be supported by a citation of a reliable source.|date=August 2017}} | Top Banana | Alfred E. Green | Phil Silvers | Shot and edited in 3-D, the film was released in 2-D. The film only survives in a 16mm, 2-D version, although a 3-D trailer has survived. | 1955 | Godzilla Raids Again | Motoyoshi Oda | Hiroshi Koizumi, Minoru Chiaki | While the movie itself is intact, the Japanese trailer for this second Godzilla film was long presumed lost. However, the trailer for Rodan, a subsequent kaiju movie from Toho, begins with scenes from the first Godzilla movie and Godzilla Raids Again, before showing the monster Rodan. In the first two decades of the 21st century, the studio reused the Rodan trailer, editing it so that only the scenes from Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again remained. Rodan's roar is still heard near the end, however. The original trailer for Godzilla Raids Again was found in 2016, missing the soundtrack. It is included on the Japanese Blu-ray release of the film. | [178] | 1956 | The Burmese Harp | Kon Ichikawa | Nikkatsu, the studio that commissioned the film, released it in Japan in two parts, three weeks apart. Part 1 (running 63 minutes) opened on January 21, 1956, and part 2 (80 minutes) opened on February 12. Both were accompanied by B movies. The total running time of 143 minutes was cut to 116 for later re-release and export, reputedly over Ichikawa's objection. The original 143-minute version is lost. |
1960s Year | Film | Director | Cast | Notes | Ref | 1960 | The Three Stooges Scrapbook | Sidney Miller | The Three Stooges | Unsold television pilot, divided in 1963 into two theatrical shorts—also titled The Three Stooges Scrapbook—padded with long animated sequences. A portion was also reprinted in black and white and incorporated into the feature The Three Stooges in Orbit (1962). The original television pilot is lost. | [179] | 1963 | It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World | Stanley Kramer | Spencer Tracy | Premiering at 192 minutes, the movie was edited to 162 minutes for general release. In the late 1980s, 20 minutes of deleted footage were found in a warehouse which had been slated for demolition, and restored to the film in 1991. The remaining lost roadshow footage was tracked down in 2013 as part of a restoration effort to return the film to its original roadshow length. A majority of the scenes found were complete; the remainder were missing either the sound or the visuals, as they were derived from original 70mm roadshow prints that were themselves edited down from Kramer's original cut. The original elements disappeared long ago. | 1964 | Man in the 5th Dimension | Dick Ross | Billy Graham | This short film was originally shot in the 70mm Todd-AO widescreen process. Eleven 70mm prints were created, but none survive. The film exists in a 16mm version only. | 1964 | Think | Charles and Ray Eames | Film was part of an exhibit at the 1964 New York World's Fair. Around 2016, a home movie held at Indiana University Libraries Moving Image Archives was found to include 3 minutes of the 1964 version. | [180] | 1966 | The Good, the Bad and the Ugly | Sergio Leone | Clint Eastwood, Eli Wallach, Lee Van Cleef | At least two completed sequences from this film, one in which Blondie foils Tuco with the aid of a Mexican prostitute, and another in which Angel Eyes explains to Blondie how he came to know about Jackson's gold, were cut from all releases, including the Italian premiere version, and are now believed to be lost. All that remains of the former sequence is a snippet of footage used in a French trailer for the film, while a small number of production photos provide evidence for both scenes' existence. | [181][182][183] | 1967 | Four Stars | Andy Warhol | Edie Sedgwick, Ondine | One of the longest films ever publicly screened, it ran for close to 25 hours at The Filmmaker's Cinemathèque in New York City on December 15–16, 1967. Based on extant data regarding the order of reels, films that still remain and projection information, a full reconstruction is not possible. | [184] | Great Monster Yongary | Kim Ki-duk | The original negative is thought to be lost, and the original Korean-language version only exists in a 48-minute fragment. However, MGM owns a complete 35mm interpositive, and textless 35mm elements for the opening and ending titles, and was able to reconstruct the AIP-TV English-dubbed US version in CinemaScope. | 1968 | 2001: A Space Odyssey | Stanley Kubrick | Keir Dullea | After the original premiere, Kubrick cut 24 minutes (while adding title cards and a small insertion at the "Dawn of Man" sequence). Seventeen minutes of cut footage were discovered in a Kansas salt mine where some motion pictures are archived. |
1970s Year | Film | Director | Cast | Notes | Ref | 1971 | Bedknobs and Broomsticks | Robert Stevenson | Angela Lansbury, David Tomlinson | The film was shortened after its premiere, from two and a half hours to 119 minutes. In 1996, a restoration effort was mounted, and most of the cut footage was found. However, most of the dialogue tracks for these scenes could not be recovered, so the scenes were dubbed, by the original actors when possible. Footage of the song "A Step in the Right Direction", which was included on the original soundtrack album, has not been found. | The Big Boss | Lo Wei | Bruce Lee | After its Hong Kong run, the movie was edited for Western release. Numerous cuts were made, mostly to remove the more graphic violence. Also removed was an explicit brothel scene in which Lee's character makes love to a Thai prostitute (Lee's only implied nude scene in his career). The missing footage has been rumored to still exist. | [185] | Duck, You Sucker! | Sergio Leone | Rod Steiger, James Coburn, Romolo Valli | Many versions of this film exist (the best-known and most widely available being the 157-minute version), but several scenes are known to have been cut from every release, and possibly survive only through production stills. These include a scene in which John is forced to march across a desert without water (similar to a scene in Leone's previous film, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly), and one in which Dr. Villega is tortured for information by Colonel Reza. | [186][187] | 1972 | The Last House on the Left | Wes Craven | Sandra Cassel, Lucy Grantham | This film was unusually graphic for the time, and many cinema machinists made their own cuts. As a result, some scenes are missing from most versions of the film, and the sound is missing from other scenes. | [188][189][190][191] | 1973 | The Wicker Man | Robin Hardy | Christopher Lee, Edward Woodward | The original cut of The Wicker Man is lost. In 2013, StudioCanal launched a Facebook campaign to find missing material from the film, which resulted in the discovery of a 92-minute 35mm print at the Harvard Film Archive. This print had previously been known as the "Middle Version" and was itself assembled from a 35mm print of the original edit Robin Hardy had made in the United Kingdom in 1973 that was never released. | [192][193] | 1974 | The Corpse Eaters | Donald R. Passmore, Klaus Vetter | Michael Hopkins, Ed LeBreton | After being sold as a tax write-off, the film faded into obscurity for years until Encore Home Video rediscovered it in 1993 and released it on DVD several years later, claiming to have transferred their copy from the only known surviving print. This version runs 57 minutes, and is considered incomplete. | [194] | 1977 | Last House on Dead End Street | Roger Watkins | Roger Watkins | The original cut of the film, bearing the title Cuckoo Clocks of Hell, was three hours in length. Although it was screened in 1974, this version has been lost; the original negatives are missing, and may have been destroyed. | [195] | 1978 | Martin | George A. Romero | John Amplas | The original version was entirely in black and white and ran for 165 minutes; 70 minutes were cut from it before the movie's release. Romero stated that, to his knowledge, no copy of the original cut exists. | 1979 | Caligula | Tinto Brass | Malcolm McDowell | reason=This statement needs to be supported by a citation of a reliable source.|date=September 2017}} |
1980s Year | Film | Director | Cast | Notes | Ref | 1987 | My Best Friend's Birthday | Quentin Tarantino | Quentin Tarantino | The original cut was about 70 minutes long, but due to a fire, only 36 minutes of the film still exist. The surviving footage has been edited together and shown at several film festivals, but never officially released. It is rumored to be in Tarantino's possession. |
2000s Year | Film | Director | Cast | Notes | Ref | 2002 | Is It College Yet? | Karen Disher | Tracy Grandstaff | The original screening was 75 minutes long, but subsequent screenings and all DVD releases have been only 66 minutes long. It is believed that MTV lost some of the film and reshot parts with some lines of dialogue omitted. | [196] |
