Special Collector's 2 Disc Set DARKER THAN AMBER (1970) Rod Taylor Suzy Kendall Rare Uncut Fight Sequence Case Artwork Customer Review: The best versions I've seen ~ Columbus, OH Darker Than Amber (1970 - 2 Full Screen DVD-R's - Color - 96 min) Released August 1970, Public Domain August 1998 Note: One disc contains the very rare un-released version with the full uncut fight sequence running time 99 minutes 33 seconds. The second disc is an edited TV version more widely shown with Dutch subtitles running time 82 minutes 44 seconds. Some general release versions had a 96 minute running time where the full fight sequence was edited. A bit of warning. The original fight sequence is not for the faint of heart. It is very brutal where Rod Taylor's nose was actually broken and William Smith suffered as well with three broken ribs. What started out as a planned staged fight scene devolved into a real one! For the era it was considered one of the most ferocious fight scenes ever done and frankly it's still pretty hard to watch.
