The 73 minute TV movie version of Duel (1971) is available for download/streaming:

https://archive.org/details/DUEL71ABCTV

The .mp4 file is 3.7 gigs. I burned a data DVD to watch it in a
DVD player. Apple removed ISO support from imovie, long after
removing DVD burning. A data DVD worked in a newer player,
though I'd rather burn a movie DVD. I have an old computer that
has movie DVD burning, but I haven't been able to get it to make
ISO files.

The only other version easy to see is the 90 minute Theatrical
version on DVD, with dumb added scenes padding it out. The old
DVD version is 1.33 like the original while the current DVD/Blu
version cuts off a third of the picture at the top and bottom to
cram it into a widescreen. It's called the Theatrical version
because it was made as an after thought to show in Germany or
something like that and so had to pad it out to 90 minutes. I
assume that this TV version is only 70 minutes long from being sped
up from a PAL European broadcast as American TV quit showing the
original version a long time ago.

I watched the TV movie version first and then the old DVD
version, and there's a lot of monolog and some scenes that are
cut from the original to cram in twenty minutes of padding. The
musical cues have been rearranged and the theatrical version
might have more dramatic music but I'm not sure.

The plot of the movie is an anonymous trucker harasses a city boy
driving through the country. It is intended to be an anti-redneck
picture, as directed by Spielberg, perhaps inspiring Deliverance
(1972)? though I haven't seen that movie.

You can export a movie from iMovie which can then be converted and
burnt to a proper video DVD format by other software.

Roxio Toast is the standard app for burning CDs and DVDs of any type,
but it's US$60 for the Titanium version, which is expensive unless
you're using it a lot.

There are other options, although I've never tried them, including
among others:

- Cisdem DVD Burner (not much cheaper at US$50)
<https://www.cisdem.com/dvd-burner.html>

- Burn (Free!!)
<https://burn-osx.sourceforge.io/Pages/English/home.html>

If you want some sort of menu on the DVD, then I usually use the free
app DVDStyler <https://www.dvdstyler.org/en/> to create the DVD menu
and add existing movie file(s), then export a disk image and burn it
with another app, usually an old version of Toast.

Back then, extra scenes were commonly filmed for U.S. TV-movies so they
could pad out the films to be shown theatrically, usually in Europe.
They also added nude scenes. That kind of stuff was shoehorned in.

I've only seen one of these, a Dick Clark-produced movie about the
formation of the Beatles. The added footage included a brief nude
sequence of the Stu Sutcliffe character in bed with his girlfriend.

The Blade producer said they were filming them. Nobody ever said they had
seen them.

There are other shows like that. Supposedly there are naughty versions of
the first half of the first season of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle‘s The Lost
World that were added as a bonus for people that watch through a specific subscription service. I believe they mostly if not all involved extra
footage shot of guest stars. I’ve heard of a couple people that claim to
have seen them but I’ve never seen one myself.

Long ago and far away on The Lost World message board there was some guy
that said where he was watching there was nudity of the main cast in the opening credits which he was watching on TNT like the rest of us. The rest
of us said we weren’t seeing any naughty bits. He asked if it wasn’t possible that his local TNT station was running a different version of the series credits than TNT across the rest of the country was. He became hysterically angry when we said “no“ and went away…

Holy hell. There’s a 4K version of the season two titles? How? Why?

One of the perks of working in the White House and being read in on a
slew of TS-SCI programs is that you're given access to the unredacted
hard-R version of the BLADE television series.

The only thing I'll say is that it was... magnificent.

Shame you guys will never get to see it.
