The situation with Cleopatra's lost footage is explained on the new blu-ray.
Apparently in 1978, Fox decided--in order to save money--to throw out all of their cuts and extra footage from their old films. At that point it was thrown away.
But, the 4 hour 6 minute version survives, and is quite good. Thank goodness at least that survives.
