In 1988, French animation director René Laloux released his third and final feature-length animated film, Gandahar — a high-concept science-fiction film based upon a 1969 French novel. The same year, Harvey Weinstein released an edited version of the film in the United States re-titled Light Years. The only version of the original dubbed into English, it featured a new script written by famed author Isaac Asimov and replaced most of the original French music soundtrack. Weinstein edited out most of the sexuality and nudity, resulting in a disjointed version of the original film. In the years since, Light Years has been has been ridiculed forgotten while the original, unedited Gandahar has been restored and re-released with English subtitles. -- source link
