Yes.
This is the fully uncut version and it does include
the notorious hardcore sex scene between Carole Laurie and Lewis Furey.
Of course, including hardcore sex [real onscreen sexual penetration] in
any legitimate film is risky on both an artistic and commercial level.
However please note, the segment is only a few minutes long and is shot
mostly in the shadows. Despite this being a decidedly firebrand interim
- which both alienates some viewers while it is celebrated by others -
a good argument can be made for its inclusion as the scene does dramatically
symbolize the relationship between the spiritual and the physical, an
important message in the film. Plus. as a side remark, both actors
- Laurie and Furey - were married at the time (and still are).
Gangsters,
unhappy with a dancer named Fabienne for her unorthodox behavior at their
nightclub, escort her to the wilderness and shoot her to death. A man
finds her body in the snow and takes her back to his cabin. He is actually
the Angel Gabrielle, and brings Fabienne back to life, albeit with severe
memory loss. The unusual couple spends time together playing music, frolicking
in the countryside, making love, walking through the snow and hanging
out with other angels. [Spoiler ahead] Eventually Fabienne demands
to be taken back to the city. Once there, she finds the men who killed
her and exacts revenge upon them. Then, suddenly, the woman is back to
the start of the film. The gangsters kill her. Gabrielle approaches her
body. But this time he simply kneels beside her corpse, weeps and disappears.
It's a very simple film with a very simple moral: When given a second
chance, don't waste it on a dead end mission of vengeance.
