It was my favorite movie for a long time. The various cuts that exist are completely different in significant ways. The studios mandated a 'happy ending' version that really ruins the whole story.

The director's cut is very dark indeed.

The version I saw seemed like a "happy ending" until it jumped back to what was actually happening outside of the torture victim's mind, ruined credit rating and all. agony-deep

Ya, the 'Love Conquers All' edit that Gilliam refused to accept ends just before that reveal. It also removes a bunch of other scenes to fit into a TV friendly viewing slot.
