Very minor comments! I liked the entry very much smiley - rainbow

1. "In every episode, a mysterious figure appears (actually, his appearance was cut from Episode 7)."

In episode 7, you can actually see him (in the background, on the platform of a train station, but you have to know it's him: someone asked Kieslowski who confirmed). And in episode 10, he's completely missing, because Kieslowski wanted to.

2. "Episodes 5 and 6 were re-edited into slightly longer forms and given a cinematic release as A Short Film About Killing and A Short Film About Love. Although both benefit from the extra length afforded by the feature format, both are essentially unchanged."

Well, episode 6 had another ending! Actually the actress (Ewa Polony?) wanted a more optimistic ending to the story, to which Kieslowski agreed.
