There is a scene when Rigby is going up to see Kitty. He stops at the gas station where Swede Andersen works. He is wiping the windshield while Rigby talks to him. He then drives on to the club where Kitty is singing. All of this is from the film The Killers with Burt Lancaster who plays the Swede. In the original vhs release, this gas station scene was intact. In a later vhs release, this scene (about 1 min long) was cut for some reason. There never was a ld, and the dvd is the cut version of the later vhs.
What is particularly confusing and irritating, is that there are other scenes still in the movie from The Killers, including a death scene with Burt Lancaster as the Swede. So what possible rights issues could have caused this cut baffles the hell out of me.
