Reply #20: Billy Bob Thornton was royally screwed on that film [View All]

[Wetzelbill]

The studio made him cut everything out. Like almost an hour of the film was taken out. He has been pissed about it for years because he always felt that a person only gets a chance to do something that special maybe once in a lifetime, and he was forced to butcher that story. Billy Bob and Matt Damon were both pretty upset at that. There has been some talk about Thornton putting together a director's cut for a dvd, but it's never came to fruition.

Btw, Ridley Scott is going to do "Blood Meridian." Also the Coen Brothers directed "No Country For Old Men" and that should be out in the states pretty soon.
