Disappointing that the article doesn't mention the fact that the non-CGI'd version of the movie does exist on DVD, but not Blu-Ray. That scene was beyond-R rating at the time, but in the 20 years since it's certainly not.
Along with the International cut of The Shining, I wish we could get, in the US, what are certainly the best versions of Kubrick's work. In the case of EWS, the CGI people covering the sex is distracting and silly. The movie is meant to be erotic and surreal.
- Mediterraneo10 7y agoI think the fact that the Blu-ray version is non-CGI has to do with the fact that 1) after years had passed, it was assumed that customers know what they are getting into, and 2) over the first decade of the new millennium, studios began supplying "non-rated" cuts to the home rental market – with raunchy scenes beyond the R-rated cut – and it was not met with much outrage from the morals police. > I wish we could get, in the US, what are certainly the best versions of Kubrick's work. You can always torrent a European Blu-ray.
