Review of Flesh

Flesh (1968)
8/10
Where did those 20 minutes go?
24 April 2014
There's an ongoing mystery about the Warhol/Morrissey film 'Flesh'. According to this website and to the Time Out Out Film Guide its length is 105 minutes. I have a DVD of 'Flesh' which also says it's 105 minutes long. The actual running time of the film on the DVD is 89 minutes: more often it's 86 minutes. So where does the 105 figure come from. If you ask the question on Google: 'How long is Andy Warhol's 'Flesh'?', the immediate answer is 105 minutes. So far I have failed to find any version that lasts more than 89 minutes. Does anyone have an explanation for this? Where has the 105 figure come from and to which version, if any, does it refer? If there's a version of this length why are nearly 20 minutes missing from the available versions?
