Saw the new extended director's cut, and I must say that I prefer the original version better.
The new version was about a half hour too long. I did enjoy all the new scenes with Elena. That was great.
Wish the original version somehow put in the Elena scenes in it's version. It would make a great film even better.
Loved the film Malena as well.
