I have always considered this a good movie, but it was too picaresque. The shorter cut lacks a central theme, and the movie suffers. This longer cut adds in that theme, and viscerally. It promotes this from good war movie to great human war story. The only version I will ever watch again.
As well, it allows Lee Marvin the space to turn in the greatest performance of his career as he embodies that theme, "the only glory in war is surviving."
