Description:

True Romance: The Quentin Tarantino Cut Running Time: 131 minutes Think you've seen True Romance? Think again. You certainly haven't seen the film that its writer envisioned. The original screenplay by Quentin Tarantino, much like his Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction, had an answers-first, questions-later structure to it. And that, more than anything else, was what made it interesting. True Romance was written, very carefully written, to be a non-linear story. And Tony Scott, the director, shot it that way. But at some point during the editing process, Scott got cold feet. Worried that the audience wouldn't understand the movie, he decided to put all the scenes in chronological order. And he ruined the film. The story of True Romance was supposed to be divided into three parts. Part one: the characters know more than the audience. Part two: the audience catches up. Part three: the audience knows more than the characters. By putting the film in chronological order, Scott spoiled everything. Say goodbye to all the surprises and say goodbye to anything approaching subtlety. Say hello to dialogue that's repetitious and pointless. This is especially true of the early part of the movie, where every line was meant to tease the viewer and slowly dole out information. Scott took that away. All this to say that assembling a "Tarantino" cut of True Romance has been a long held dream of mine. Using the original screenplay as a guide, and re-inserting as much cut footage as possible, this new version of the film is probably the closest any of us will ever get to seeing Tarantino's vision. With the scenes of the film back in their proper non-linear order, small throwaway lines are suddenly much more meaningful, and otherwise minor sequences suddenly become quite relevant. The deleted scenes are also worth mentioning. Quite a bit was cut from the theatrical release. Dialogue that was deemed too nasty, or scenes that served as bridges in the original structure were all removed. The saddest, most inexcusable victim of the Scott cut would have to be the character of Alabama. For reasons (at least to my knowledge) unknown, Scott left most of her best moments on the cutting room floor. Several scenes where she talks with Clarence, tells him stories about herself, or just plain explains where her head is at, were inexplicably omitted. But that's the beauty of fan edits. In this new cut, everything is restored. The scenes all return to their proper place, and Alabama gets the screen time she always deserved. Oh, and the ending is fixed, too. Gone is the happy happy "Magic eye patch, frolicking on the beach, Elvis Junior" ending. We return instead to Tarantino's much nastier, much more satisfying finale. Before I go, I'd like to mention that I didn't like True Romance very much when I first saw it. Other than the Hopper/Walken scene, and Oldman's trippy performance, I thought it was fairly forgettable. Just a boy meets girl story. Sure, the boy was psychotic and the girl was a hooker and they kill or are responsible for the deaths of nearly every person they meet, but that's besides the point. It just didn't do much for me. Of course, at the time, I didn't know that it had been so severely mangled. At the time, all I knew was that it didn't have that spark that made Tarantino's other work sing. Well, now it hits the high notes. You're welcome. I've been waiting fifteen years for someone at the studio to wise up and realize that there's money to be made from a "Tarantino" cut of True Romance. Fact is, I'm pretty sure that if someone put the work in, this would surely merit a re-release in theaters. Hey, if a less good version of Donnie Darko can get one, "The Tarantino cut" of True Romance should be a shoe-in. Thanks for listening.

----FAN EDIT--- that's pretty much what u needed to put in the title, man!
Then u could have continued to explain to us what's what in your opinion. Cause, while there are several alternate versions out there, no one heard of a "Tarantino cut" release of this puppy. Now there's a lotta QT fans in this world, but not a lot of us would decide that we know what's in his head and how would he cut this movie after all!

russell1nash, this is not a fanedit in the conventional sense of the word. You could maybe call it a fan-restoration because all the editor did was strictly follow Tarantino's original screenplay for the movie.
In other words, Tarantino wrote True Romance in his trademark out-of-chronological-order structure. The movie was shot that way but then re-edited in chronological order because the powers that be decided that the audiences wouldn't "get" the movie.
All this "fanedit" does is restore the film the way it was originally conceived, according to Tarantino's original screenplay, which is included with this release.
This is the movie Tarantino wanted you to see. Not what the studio released.

I see you're so confident in your fannish editing skills that you DELETED my comment offering a fair criticism of the end product.
THIS IS A FAN EDIT, STRICTLY FOR THE FANBOYS.

if any of you fuckers watched the Tarantino commentary for this film then you'd know what the uploader has done here. if you haven't watched it, shut the fuck up please. the film has been altered by the uploader from its original form to fit what Quentin originally wrote. he talks about this on the commentary so i'm not gonna bother explaining it all here
