So *that's* why they're so choppy.  It's really a shame, it's that way today no
matter who the actors are, with few exceptions.  The only one that comes to
mind is the final confrontation between the main characters in Grosse Point
Blank.  Not only barely cut (if at all; s'been awhile since I've watched
it), but *realistic*... there are actual feints and such.  I'm sure there
are others.
