An extended-cut for the American Gangster DVD
The unrated, extended edition of Ridley Scott’s American Gangster, due out on the 19th of February, will run for a generous 17 minutes longer than the theatrical cut, for a total runtime of 174 minutes.
I enjoyed American Gangster, but does it really need another 20 minutes? I’m up for it if it features more of Ruby Dee (who was criminally underused; it says a lot about an actor’s talents when she consistently steal the show from Denzel Washington).
