Cyril Raymond 		A "cut version dubbed in French" was found as a result of a 1992 British Film Institute campaign to locate missing movies. [148]
The Horror Bud Pollard Leslie King, Nyreda Montez Originally released at 70 mins., this was re-cut to less than 40 in the 1940s under the title of "John the Drunkard." Only the latter version survives at the Library of Congress. [149] [150]

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).

1937 Lost Horizon Frank Capra Ronald Colman Capra's initial 210-minute version was cut down to 131 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 131-minute release has survived, no complete 131-minute print is known to exist. In many currently-used versions, still photos and individual frames are used to replace the seven minutes of missing footage that accompanies the soundtrack.

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 rerecord 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 characters.
1942 Berdjoang Rd. Ariffien Mohamad Mochtar A single reel was shown at the Yamagata International Documentary Film Festival; the rest remains lost. [155]
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.[156] A two-and-a-half minute trailer also survives.[157]
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.[158]

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.
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. [159]
1954 Southwest Passage Ray Nazarro Joanne Dru Initially released in 3-D, this feature only survives in its flat form.
A Star Is Born George Cukor Judy Garland Originally premiering at 181 minutes, Warner Bros. cut the film down by about 27 minutes for general release. The 1983 restoration included soundtrack from this cut and a few establishing shots, with stills filling in the rest. A complete print is rumored to exist.
Top Banana Alfred E. Green Phil Silvers Shot and edited in 3-D, the film was released flat. The film only exists in 16mm, and does not exist in 3-D, although a 3-D trailer has survived.
1956 The Burmese Harp Kon Ichikawa In Japan, Nikkatsu, the studio that commissioned the film, released it in two parts, three weeks apart. Part one (running 63 minutes) opened on January 21, 1956, and part two (80 minutes) opened on February 12, both accompanied by B movies. Its 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 Television pilot, divided into two theatrical shorts, also titled "The Three Stooges Scrapbook," in 1963, padded with long animated sequences. A portion was also re-printed in black and white and incorporated into the feature The Three Stooges in Orbit (1962). The original television pilot is lost.[160]
1962 Big and Little Wong Tin Bar Jackie Chan
Sammo Hung 		Chan's film debut at age eight. An early-1960s interview with Chan included some footage, all that is known to survive (included in the documentary Jackie Chan: My Story).
1963 It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World Stanley Kramer Spencer Tracy It was originally premiered at 192 minutes, then edited to 162 for general release. In the late 1980s, 20 minutes of deleted footage were found in a warehouse which had been slated for demolition, and edited back into the film in 1991. In 2013, the remaining lost roadshow footage was tracked down as part of a restoration effort to return the film to its original release length. A majority of the scenes were complete with sound and picture, while some scenes were either audio- or visual-only, as they were derived from original 70mm roadshow prints that were themselves cut down (the original elements have long disappeared).
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.
1966 The Good, the Bad and the Ugly Sergio Leone Clint Eastwood
Eli Wallach
Lee Van Cleef 		At least one completed sequence from this film, in which 'Blondie' foils Tuco with the aid of a Mexican prostitute, was cut from all versions of this film (including the Italian premiere version), and is now believed to be lost. All that remains of this sequence is a snippet of footage used in a French trailer for the film, as well as a small number of production photos. [161][162]
1967 Four Stars Andy Warhol Edie Sedgwick
Ondine 		One of the longest films ever publicly screened, this ran for close to 25 hours at The Filmmaker's Cinemathèque in New York City on December 15–16, 1967. Extant data regarding the order of reels, films that still remain and projection information do not allow for a full reconstruction.[163]
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 (also adding title cards and a small insertion at the "Dawn of Men" 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
1970 The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes Billy Wilder Robert Stephens, Colin Blakely Two entire stories and a flashback sequence were cut from the final release print at the studio's insistence. Some, but not all, of the missing parts are available on laserdisc and DVD releases. [164]
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, the original version was restored, though most of the previously deleted scenes ended up re-dubbed and one of the deleted scenes, A Step in the Right Direction, is presumed lost.
The Big Boss Lo Wei Bruce Lee After the original premiere, Hong Kong censors demanded that some of the footage be trimmed, including more graphic violence, and an explicit brothel scene in which Bruce Lee's character makes love to a Thai prostitute (also featuring Lee's only implied nude scene in his career). The missing footage has been rumored to still exist. [165]
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 version, 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 Leone's previous film, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly), and a scene in which Dr. Villega is tortured for information by Colonel Reza. [166][167]
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 in most versions of the film, and the sound has been completely lost from certain scenes.[168][169][170][171]
1973 The Wicker Man Robin Hardy Christopher Lee
Edward Woodward 		The original cut of The Wicker Man is lost.[172] European distributors began a Facebook campaign in 2013 to find missing material from the film, which culminated in the discovery of a 92-minute 35 mm print at the Harvard Film Archive. This print had previously been known as the "Middle Version" and was itself assembled from a 35 mm print of the original edit Robin Hardy had made in the United Kingdom in 1973, but which was never released.[173]
1977 Martin George A. Romero John Amplas The original copy was entirely in monochrome and ran for 165 minutes. To Romero's knowledge, no copy of this version exists.
1979 Caligula Tinto Brass Malcolm McDowell Most of the third act and many small scenes in the first two thirds are missing.

1980s

Year Film Director Cast Notes Ref
1980 The Shining Stanley Kubrick Jack Nicholson Kubrick cut a scene at the end, which was a discussion about the disappearance of Jack's frozen body. The scene was cut soon after being released in theaters, and the footage was apparently destroyed by the studio, but is rumored to be in the possession of Kubrick's family.
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 survived. The 36 minute cut has been shown at several film festivals. It has never been officially released, but is rumored to be in Tarantino's possession.
