La verdad es que la noticia, primero como rumor y luego ya confirmada, viene de largo. De hecho, a finales de enero de este año los chicos de The Digital Bits publicaban ya este comentario en su sección de rumores:

<blockquote>Quote:<hr>We wanted do a quick follow up on that Steven Spielberg deleted scene story we posted yesterday. It seemed a little strange to us, so we checked in with our contacts at DreamWorks to get the full story (they went so far as to hunt down the actual interview tape and gave it a viewing for us so we could get the complete and accurate details). The story is that Spielberg was on The Today Show on 12/19. During a lengthy interview with Matt Lauer to promote Catch Me If You Can, Spielberg was asked about deleted scenes in his films - what becomes of them. That's when the director revealed that there was some 30 minutes of footage cut from Catch Me, and good hour from Schindler's List. He then proceeded to explain that he keeps them in his own personal collection (apparently on DVD and obviously the original film as well) for reference purposes. But as DreamWorks explained to me, Spielberg has yet to include much in the way of deleted material on his DVD releases thus far, so there's no guarantee that any of this material will ever be publicly released on disc. Thanks to our contacts at DreamWorks for helping us get to the bottom of this rumor.<hr></blockquote>

<blockquote>Quote:<hr>Okay folks... a couple of very cool rumors today. First of all, we have it from very reliable sources that Universal is prepping a Schindler's List special edition tentatively set to be released in February of 2004. Sadly, Spielberg said no to audio commentary, but there will be lots of other extras.<hr></blockquote>

a lo que siguió poco después esta confirmación semioficial:

<blockquote>Quote:<hr>This is a quick update to let you know that we heard an actual street for Universal's upcoming Schindler's List DVD. Word from retailers in the know is that Universal expects to release the DVD-18 disc on March 9th of next year. They've also been informed by the studio that The Sugarland Express and Duel will follow in 2004, so good news for you Spielberg fans.<hr></blockquote>

Veremos qué nos llega de esa hora de escenas eliminadas, aunque yo, supongo que como la mayoría de vosotros, no creo que a la película le falte nada (si acaso, más bien le sobra alguna secuencia), de modo que me conformo con una buena calidad audio/video y un "making of" sólido.
