Wait until the uncut version comes out, as promised, August 6, 2003
This movie is one of the most moving love stories ever put on film; all you need to do is to wait until it is released in its entirety. I was stunned when I first saw it in the theatre, and although this was many years ago, I can still remember the emotion it evoked in me and how unique it was, albeit common life situation, the eternal triangle. This involves 2 men and a woman and there are scenes, one in particular, that break your heart.
*WARNING: Possible spoiler...toward the end of the movie they have their pictures taken in a photo booth, and the top pictures show them mugging and smiling; then the tragedy of their situation hits and the girl is shown, on the last frame, with tears and mascara running down her face; this hit me with tremendous impact and I was very moved by it.
Brigham Young University has promised to release this classic in its entirety; I strongly advise you to wait for the uncut version. It is well worth wating for, and on a par with "Les Enfants du Paradis." GREAT moviemaking...

Why does the DVD not play the entire movie?, March 1, 2001
This DVD version of C'eravamo tanto amati was created under a non-thatrical, educational software license. We did not have the legal right to show the movie in its entirety. It was originally created as an Italian language tool. We have since purchased the theatrical rights and are in the process of remastering the DVD to allow continuous play. The new version should be available in May.
Harold H. Hendricks, project director.

Clarification !, November 10, 2003
The Second edition of this DVD has been available since 2001. The first edition, which went to the menu after every scene, is no longer available. Neither version cut any scenes. The DVD now being sold at this site and others is the complete, uncut movie and can be viewed without interruption. I apologize for the confusion caused by my earlier explanation.
