Alternate Versions
Several scenes are in the television version that are not in the video release version:
- A two scene subplot involving Commandant van Horst's dog.
- When Nick (Kilmer) spits at General Streck (Kemp) the projectile ricochets off of two walls.
- In the park, Nick offers Hillary (Gutteridge) a cart of beverages.
- When Nick and Hillary kiss, breaking the guitar, much of the scene is edited. They roll in front of two buildings and a window overlooking a burning building.
- Near the end, Cedric (Sharif) crushes Streck in a car as he had been.
