Is that the uncut original version? The movie isn't a masterpiece by any means, but Edward Woodward's performance is excellent. Besides, I have fond memories from the weekend back in the mid-80's when I viewed the film at a special screening at a convention in Austin; please, don't ask me to embellish [;^)].
Heck, if it's the uncut Limited Edition in the wood box I'd probably buy it if you placed it for sale in the Asylum's classifieds and knocked off $5 or so.

It says "Theatrical Version" whatever that means. No wooden box, not limited edition. Sorry.(NT) - Mr Vinyl 07:29:42 02/18/02 (1)

  ...in a refurbished print that looks far better than the one on VHS. IMO the somewhat longer version, with most scenes added at the beginning, is actually inferior as it makes the implicit, explicit. Besides, that long track of him piloting the plane is the perfect establishing shot.
