The TCM version IS different from the version included in the Peckinpah box set a couple of years ago. That version was (controversially) re-edited and tightened up by Paul Seydor. My preference would be the TCM version, with the original frame intro/outro and the scene between Garrett and his wife included (the Channel Z version, which I think was derived from the version Peckinpah routinely sent out to film festivals as his personal print).

BTW, if you haven't seen it, check out Joel McCrea and Randolph Scott in Peckinpah's second film, the 1962 "Ride the HIgh Country." It is also known as "Guns in the Afternoon" in Europe and maybe Japan. Wonderful movie, with an amazing final scene. After watching it, you may decide Peckinpah directed at least four great Westerns!
