Recent DVD Release Is Complete
The famous beginning sequence, often hacked in public domain transfers, is complete in every respect including the initial fade-in and with no discontinuities in the action nor the sound track.
There are a few splices within the entire film, however, possibly "lab" splices, hence intentional.
This version is complete including the ending titles and the final fade-out.

Famous quotes containing the words release and/or complete:
“The shallow consider liberty a release from all law, from every constraint. The wise man sees in it, on the contrary, the potent Law of Laws.”
—Walt Whitman (18191892)
“Down these mean streets a man must go who is not himself mean, who is neither tarnished nor afraid.... He is the hero, he is everything. He must be a complete man and a common man and yet an unusual man. He must be, to use a rather weathered phrase, a man of honor, by instinct, by inevitability, without thought of it, and certainly without saying it. He must be the best man in his world and a good enough man for any world.”
—Raymond Chandler (18881959)
