(For the supplementary section of the DVD and Blu-Ray, Nathaniel Thompson reconstructed what he could of the music, but portions of the production audio itself were beyond repair.) Ready by sometime in the spring of 1978.īaraglis final version, with the bedroom scene (did you see their faces, guards, dispute over land) in sequence and complete except for the ending back in bed, which is missing everywhere except in the recent DVD supplements. Mysteriously, random portions of the production audio were erased. The music was not separated, but included on the same reels of fullcoat as the duplicate of the production audio. A temporary music track was later added, consisting of excerpts from Khachaturian and Prokofiev ballets. The remainder slightly modified from (4) above, minus the scenes deleted by order of Jack Silverman. A b&w dupe copy seems still to survive.įirst half adapted partly from (1) above and partly from (4) above. All the scenes in the Temple of Jupiter, along with several other scenes (“You don’t exist!”), were deleted at Jack Silverman’s insistence.ĭismantled.
The pastoral idyll was used as a prologue. Included the consulship of Incitatus (in the wrong place), the massage, and the Temple of Jupiter in its entirety. Revised rough cut completed by 9 November 1977. This seems to have been constructed from copies of the raw rushes, not from the preliminary assembly. Rough cut completed by first week of September 1977. A few brief portions of 1984s Io Caligola re-create Brasss original cut, and this suggests that prior to the directors cut being dismantled, someone copied it, and that Franco Rossellini came into possession of that copy as well as some discards from the negatives. Survives, incomplete, in a disassembled 16mm b/w copy. Tinto Brass arrived at work on Monday, 18 April 1977 to find that the lock had been changed, that a summons had been affixed to the door, and that his mammoth Prévost editing machine was sitting outside in the snow. Abandoned at close of workday, Friday, 15 April 1977, after a full nine weeks of editing begun on Monday, 14 February 1977. This included everything through to the end of the stadium scene (head-mower). This is just the preliminary assembly with some of the fat trimmed away. Despite all precautions by both sides of the dispute, all copies of this preliminary assembly are presumed destroyed. Another was secretly made by Felix/Penthouse, to keep it safe from Tinto. One was secretly made by Tinto, to keep it safe from Felix/Penthouse. A second and third color copy seem to have been made. It is just a lot of raw footage from which an editor would later sculpt a movie. It is simply every potentially usable moment of every camera angle of every take, hammered together in screenplay sequence. This is not an edited or even viewable version of the movie. Most survived in some form or other, and, barring deacetylation, most might still survive. Back to Main Page C A L I G U L A The Multiple VersionsĪ Brief Summary of the Various Versions #
