Very sad story about the asshole who owns the film rights; very happy one about Sean Young. There is (or was?) definitely a special edition DVD, let's see if I can find something...yep, still available thru Amazon at http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/6305842442/qid=1073610881/sr=1-2/ref=sr_1_2/002-5638193-3200808?v=glance&s=dvd#product-details , but doesn't sound like the one spoken of by tikibars as I don't believe it has the narrated version - that is still unavailable for purchase as far as I know.

Sean Young, what can ya say? The skinny is Harrison didn't like her, and that his shall we say forcefulness in the "love scene" was him getting his anger out at her. Feh, who knows, I thought they had great chemistry. They needed "too beautiful to be human", they found her. And great '40s noir look about her.

I miss the narrated version myself and wish I had it too. I used to (taped off TV), but wore it out.
