Wong denied
earlier rumors that there will be a four - hour director's cut of The Grandmaster, but acknowledged he is currently
editing a different international edition containing slightly different content
from the mainland Chinese
version.
In order to take care of the overseas (especially European) market needs, Wong Kar - wai
earlier stayed in the Bangkok
editing room to remove 13 minutes
from «The Grandmaster's original 130 minutes running time to the less than 2 hour International
Version.
