Pink Floyd - Live at Pompeii - The Director's Cut

The original release, running for one hour, only featured the live footage. A second version had additional footage of the band as they recorded or pretended to record their album The Dark Side of the Moon, as well as interviews conducted off-camera by Maben. This version ran for 80 minutes. The Director’s Cut is a 2003 DVD re-release running 92 minutes. In addition to the concert and interview footage, it includes computer-generated images of outer space and of Pompeii as well as then-recent footage of Abbey Road and the Apollo missions. The original “full screen” image has been chopped up in this version and is presented in “fake widescreen”, although the original cut is presented on the DVD as an “added bonus”.
