Review on the extended version/special edition -- If you loved the original Dances with Wolves - you must buy this extended version of the movie. The scenes that were put back in made the story much clearer and actually changed the entire meaning of one scene. I couldn't believe they ever took these scenes out. You won't regret watching the extended version. All I could say after watching it was --- make it longer, make it longer! I wish they would put out the actual ENTIRE movie the way Kevin Costner intended when it was made. I would watch the entire thing - I don't care how long it is.
This is one of my favorite movies. I rented it so many times I finally bought it. Every time I watch it -- I end up in tears. David Duchovny demonstrates his excellence as a dramatic actor as a heartbroken, grieving husband, Bob. Isolated by his grief and devastated by the loss of his beloved wife, Bob meets a sweet woman recovering from a heart transplant who inspires him to love and hope again. This is a clean love story built around the issues of death, grief, and organ donation.
