Two differences between this Austrian version and the generally available American version are immediately obvious: they differ both in their length and in the language of the intertitles. The American version is only 1,883 metres long - at 18 frames per second a difference of some 7 minutes to the Austrian version with 2,045 metres. Whereas we originally presumed only a negligible difference, resulting from the varying length of the intertitles, a direct comparison has nevertheless shown that the Austrian version differs from the American version both in the montage and in the duration of individual scenes. Yet how could it happen that the later regional distribution of a canonical US silent film was longer than the "original version"?
The prevalent American version of Blind Husbands does not correspond to the version shown at the premiere of 1919. This little-known fact was already published by Richard Koszarski in 1983. The film was re-released by Universal Pictures in 1924, in a version that was 1,365 feet (416 metres) shorter. At 18 frames per second, this amounts to a time difference of 20 minutes! "Titles were altered, snippets of action removed and at least one major scene taken out entirely, where von Steuben and Margaret visit a small local chapel." (Koszarski)
From the present state of research we can assume that all the known American copies of the film derive from this shortened re-release version, a copy of which Universal donated to the Museum of Modern Art in 1941. According to Koszarski the original negative of the film was destroyed sometime between 1956 and 1961 and has therefore been irretrievably lost. This information casts an interesting light on the Austrian version, which can be dated to the period between the summer of 1921 and the winter of 1922. Furthermore, the copy is some 200 metres longer than the US version of 1924. If one follows the details given by Richard Koszarski and Arthur Lennig, this means that, as far as both its date and its length are concerned, the Austrian version lies almost exactly in the middle between the (lost) version shown at the premiere and the re-released one.A large part of the additional length of the film can be traced to cuts that were made to the 1924 version in almost every shot. Koszarski describes how the beginning and the end of scenes were trimmed, in order to "speed up" the film. However, more exciting was the discovery that the Austrian version contains shots that are missing in the American one - shots/countershots, intertitles - and furthermore shows differences in its montage (i.e. the placing of the individual shots within a sequence). All this indicates that Die Rache der Berge constitutes the oldest and most completely preserved material of the film.
就电影本身来说，这个模特还是有时有点像的，告别演唱会太催泪了，看这结尾我用了5张纸巾，鼻涕一起流，感觉走出影厅，都有点不真实，哎……
梅姐的一生值得赞扬和铭记，除了音乐和影视造诣，更多的是她对于慈善事业的贡献，以及永远在给予的侠义品格
哥哥的扮演者有些角度谜之像张一山…
美版加了妈妈去逝的桥段，比较感人。但加上挪用公款入罪就有点狠了。😊
哪个看透我梦想是平淡
这部电影最大的成就，就是让人们再次回忆起这位优秀的女士梅艳芳和她此生最亲密的哥哥张国荣。当然，还有那个闪耀的香港黄金时代。
很好看，出乎意料地温情和感动，整体节奏也让人非常舒适，感觉被治愈了。
上一版生硬，单薄的质感非常明显，情节跳跃，人物干瘪，这也是就算和新一版一样再给三十分时长也无法弥补的！
第一次在太空看这么有趣的喜剧，什么时候地球也有这种喜剧呢？跟在哪看有毛关系？会鸟语怎么还来说人话的地方
对于压根不了解梅艳芳的我来说，这是个很好的科普片，但因此也更加遗憾不曾了解生前的梅艳芳。
作为一部纪念的作品算得上不错，虽然人人都是熟悉的台前复刻，但拍出来就已经很可贵。

大明星爱上我之我们只是朋友 全是俗套但没完全落入俗套 简单温情轻喜剧 不算讨厌的政治正确
从什么时候开始我看电影不要宏大叙事也不要意义，只要看看发生的小故事
没看院线版，感觉电视剧版剪辑得还算舒服，除了中间和阿ben的戏份？实在是有点莫名其妙，葬礼戏也是败笔，其他都还可以吧。电影三星，多一星是给“香港的女儿——梅艳芳”。真的很久没看到这样港味十足的电影了，很感慨。

花无百日红
出乎意料的治愈。没有套路的圆满，每个不完美的普通人，却都默默给其他人送去一点温情和慰藉。在男主妈妈葬礼那一段泪流满面，在这鸡零狗碎的现实中，用尽全力地生活，用尽全力地笑和爱，也许就是我们最好的对抗。
3星给情怀，2星给古仔的诚意。真心喜欢她的都知道她的故事，这只是拍给不认识她和怀念她的人看的。這是一部屬於香港人的電影。
