I've just completed my BA (Hons) Scriptwriting for Film & Television degree at Bournemouth Uni. I got a 2:1.
Perhaps I could have got a 1st if I'd written fewer opinions on Ciao and paid more attention to my final script. Curse this site!!!

Hacked to within an inch if its life by the BBFC, the R1 Collector's Edition of Bruce Lee's classic kung-fu flick is a sight to behold. Not only do you finally get to see the fabled nunchuka fight in all its glory but you also have the privilege of witnessing a number of previously-deleted scenes that have been reintegrated into the movie, including a (very badly dubbed) conversation between Lee and his mentor.
Then there are the extras, of which there are so many that they are relegated to the other side of the disc. There are a number of documentaries, including footage of Lee in training, as well as an additional book and photo-set, which all comes packaged in a big, hefty box. N-i-i-i-ce!
The BBFC have since relaxed their stance on weaponry but whether the R2 version will receive this kind of treatment is another matter.
