I really enjoy the Detective Noir of the voiceover. For me it isn't
just part of the story but more a part of atmosphere of the movie. The
director's cut didn't earn my animostity for leaving out the voice over,
it earned it for completely replacing the original so that you have
access to it. The person who made that decision has earned a special
place in Hell.
I stand firm, Death to the Dircetor's Cut!
