 According to an article written by the films editor and associate producer  Richard C. Meyer, the longest version is the 132 minute version. This has  been confirmed by Vladimir Dorsal, the films First Assistant and later the  head of Mosfilm in Moscow. He says that they only have the 132m version in  their vaults and no longer 4 hours version ever existed. The myth may derive  from an earlier part of Meyers article when he states that the rough cut was  4 hours long
