Resorting to personal attacks reads as insecurity, and it's not furthering the topic.

I'm glad you recognize your emotional statements and failure to further the topic by typing things like "over your head" or "It had no business in this discussion".

There was a X-Rated version of Purple Rain (mainly thanx to the barnyard scene) that was cut from Purple Rain, for it can receive a "R-Rating". You can see a snipet of that scene from the "When Doves Cry" music video.

Fun Fact: during the filming of Purple Rain, Apollonia was married. *shock: (I thought she was dating Prince during this time?)

Well, there is the infamous Princefam purist version, where all Time, Dez and Appolonia 6 songs are edited out; even Appolonia's voice on 'Take Me With U'.

And of course you have the very special 1983 edit, with 'G-Spot' instead of 'Darling Nikki'. Happy hunting!

Albert Magnoli Q&A says there is no x-rated version; perhaps there are simply a few outtakes on the cutting floor that were never actually assembled into an x-rated version?

Chris Utley: X-rated version: FACT OR FICTION? If FACT, will Prince let you do an unrated cut for Blu-ray/DVD?

Hello, Chris. No, there was never an X-rated version. I wrote a "R-rated" script, and it became a "R-rated" film. There is no footage that would enable another version.
