The original theatrical version is 2-1/2 hours long.

The Director's Cut is 3-1/2 hours, and has a lot more scenes of the boredom, plus a great opening sequence before the night club scenes.

The "Original, Uncut (or miniseries) Version" is 5 hours long, has scenes with Ullmann and his girlfriend, scenes of the 'Old Man' himself starting to show the strain and a very hot discussion about rescuing the British survivors that isn't in either of the shorter versions. Plus a whole lot more about the boredom and some more about the storm, plus two or three more crash-dive sequences and more good stuff.

"Is that yours?" "No, I think I'd remember."
"Or was it maybe a seagull?":rotfl: (Now you have to see it just to find out)
