 On its release to what were then called "neighborhood theatres" (i.e.,  theatres that showed films that had ended their first runs), the films  running time was shortened by trimming or eliminating several scenes.  In the  shortened version, the montage between the dance hall dressing room scene and  the sidewalk scene where Charity sees Vittorio was cut; the dance section of  "Im a Brass Band" was shortened; "I Love to Cry at Weddings" faded out and  ended as Charity and Oscar leave the dance hall; and the scene in the phone  booth at the end of the film (Charity lying to Nickie and Helene about being  with Oscar and the conclusion of "Where Am I Going?") was entirely cut.  For  several years, this was the version that was shown on television.
