Deleted scenes

They most certainly should have left in the "may I ask your name?" scene with Maurice and Alec in bed together. It was a wonderful, tender scene that also provided some transition from the scene where Alec climbs into Maurice's room and the one where they're both awake the next morning.

I think they should have left in the extended scene of Clive and Maurice's last meeting. The dialogue was especially poignant.

And the scene where Maurice and Clive are talking right before Clive was to leave for Greece. I forgot why i loved that scene so much, but i think it had to do with the angst Maurice was feeling, not able to consumate his love for Clive.

where are the deleted scenes? i got the movie from netflix, so i only have the first disk. are they on the second one?

They should of left in the scenes where Maurice pervs the hot guys messing about in the shower, they were hawt! :D

It's too bad they couldn't make an uncut, full movie with all deleted scenes(remastered) DVD. I really like that missing ending part.

"I never loved anyone like I loved myself.

I think they should have left in Maurice's first interview with Lasker-Jones. Cutting the scene to him being on the table was rather confusing in my opinion.

I also agree they should have left the ending scene in as well.

That "hidden" deleted scene in the showers should definitely have been left in.

...as well as the short one of Maurice lying on his bed in the fetal position, daydreaming of Clive's voice reciting a homoerotic passage from Plato. James Ivory says in the commentary that he regrets leaving that out, particularly since it wouldn't have significantly affected the running time.

I like several scenes in the original opening sequence, too, particularly the one where Maurice can't help repeatedly telling Dickie how he'll be all alone in his bed "in case you need anything." (James Wilby is so touchingly Gyllenhaalish in that.)

The aborted kiss scene with the young woman blowing smoke rings is very poignant, too, and it makes sense to show that Maurice tried (however briefly) to have a relationship with a woman. And it's good to see how the older man who makes a pass at Maurice on the train might have gotten that idea.

On the other hand, I'm glad they decided not to have Lord Risley commit suicide. He's obviously a stand-in for Oscar Wilde, and his fate in the final film is much closer to Wilde's.
