A re-editing of Gone to Earth (1950) after a disagreement and court case between director Michael Powell and producer David O. Selznick. Selznick�s changes are mainly:- (1) Adding a prologue. (2) Adding scenes explaining things, often by putting labels or inscriptions on them. (3) Adding more close-ups of Jennifer Jones (Selznick�s wife). He also deleted a few scenes that he felt weren�t dramatic enough. Sadly some of these were major plot points so the story doesn�t make as much sense as the original. In his autobiographies, Powell claimed that Selznick only left about 35 mins of the original film. In fact there�s a lot more than that. About 2/3 of the original remains.
