"Being There" has been one of my favorite movies. Actually it’s one of my early "serious" movies where I grew up from watching "Star Wars" and "Indiana Jones" movies into watching "other" movies. Anyway has been a long time since I had seen it on VHS and saw that it’s available on DVD. Got the DVD and watched it tonight and was shocked to see the end credits! The bloopers.
I remember that the version I saw when I was young just ended with the end credits very nicely. So I did a little looking around and found out that there are 2 versions available. Saw this on IMDb
First what were they thinking? It’s completely out of place and ruins this perfect drama movie, it's not a comedy! Also learning that Sellers requested they be removed and they weren’t, makes me even more mad! Complete lack of respect. Had the director a hand in this or was it just the producers wanting to milk a little on his fame?
I wish they had included the other version on DVD. It's the only version I will remember. Anyway I’m just outraged! Yes maybe I’m 26 years late to say it but I had to get it out!
