The European version was longer, although apparently there is an even longer one that was screened at Cannes in 2012. I'm pretty sure the one I am thinking of is the European cut.

Once Upon a Time in America. Hugely underrated. One of Morrecone's best scores. Listen to the melodies that match De Niro's character at different times in his life. Heartbreaking. And, the build towards the end as the door opens! Wow. A great movie.

A gritty depiction of Ozark poverty. Really grim. Wonderful performance from Jennifer Lawrence.

The Big Lebowski 5/10

Not sure what all the fuss is about. Love later Coens, the early ones, not so much. Big fan of Bridges and Goodman, so quite a disappointment.

High Fidelity 9/10

A superb adaption of the Nick Hornby novel. The whole cast is magic. Jack Black is sensational. Vinyl, great music, great screenplay, and even better performances.
