What is the difference between unrated movie and uncut movie…are they same or different ?
‘uncut’ generally means the movie includes all the deleted scenes. ‘unrated’ means there are scenes added that weren’t part of the theatrical release. Neither of those are necessarily the same as a “director’s cut” … a director’s cut is simply the movie that the director intends for the audience to watch. it doesn’t mean that an extended edition is the same as the director’s cut (though that is usually how it works – a director wants to include a lot of content, but the studio cuts it down for length) … an example of a director’s cut not being the same as an extended (or ‘uncut’) edition is Gladiator. the version of the film that was released in theaters was Ridley Scott’s definitive version (his words, on the special edition DVD set), but the extended version was made as a selling point for the company to make more $ So, technically, there are several different classifications for a movie: – Uncut, meaning the full length of every scene that was filmed for the movie.
