I read a piece about Cannes yesterday, in the piece they wrote that the japanese cut of kill bill was going to be showen, after the awards was given out.

I got the impression that the japanese cut was vol. 1, a short break, and then vol. 2. sort of like seeing vol. 1 before going to the cinema but is that the truth, or is there extra things in it.

I know they got the b/w scene in color.  Surely this was discussed in the KB I and II threads...

As well as a whole lot of extra gore and close-ups.

For those who don't know--you can get the uncut japanese version of Vol.1 on www.yesasia.com  .  It's fuckin' great and only about 38.00 dollars.

A portuguese reporter that was in cannes said that the vol1+2 cut included the more violent and full colour japanese cut, and an intermission with the zamfir music playing separating chapters 5 and 6. He also says that it's way cooler to watch it all in one sitting.
