in a very enlightening episode featuring three very intelligent guys.

Scorsese was talking about having to cut an additional hour + from the film to make the MPAA idiots (my term, not his) "happy".
He and Thelma Schoonmaker (his right hand) spent one year editing WOWS.
Scorsese's insights into and knowledge of editing are truly phenomenal.
He insists he's happy with the results.

DiCaprio interjected at one point: "This IS the director's cut!"

Very much looking forward to seeing this. Thanks for the review!
