Love Exposure: Perfect Collection (4K UHD + Blu-Ray)

Raised by his strict Catholic father, Yu turns to photographing women from beneath their skirts in an increasingly desperate attempt to seek forgiveness for his sins. His life changes when he meets Yoko, a rebellious young woman who becomes the love of his life, but their relationship is complicated by family trauma, religious obsession and the manipulations of the enigmatic Aya. Spanning four extraordinary hours, Sion Sono’s Love Exposure is an audacious blend of romance, coming-of-age drama, dark comedy, crime and religious satire.

One of the covers of all time.

Have these deleted/uncut scenes shown up on any other releases of the film?

I think all but the “UNCUT ‘Cutting’ Scene” were on the Third Window release.

That’s two big boxes in a row! Though I imagine New Wave’s long-gestating Urotsukidōji set will dwarf them all.

Full disclosure, I have not seen this, but this seems like it might be a bit of an exaggeration considering is is not even "Widely regarded". Is this some detached irony I'm simply not getting? I have to admit I am now intrigued.

That made my eyebrows raise, but they may be basing it on its Letterboxd rating, as it’s the 71st highest rated film of all time on the app
