Close Encounters of the Third Kind Blu-Ray

Post by Fortissimo »

There are three tracks on the Netflix Blu-Ray. I'm curious what the difference is... or is this just playlist obfuscation? Usually obfuscated playlists have a lot more playlists - this is only three. But there is no obvious choice - all three have unique (and believable) durations. Google reports 2:15 for play time - none of these times match that exactly.

I just did a Google search for the director's cut of the movie, found it on Amazon, and sure enough, it's 2:17. So thanks!
