Une épouse trop parfaite

The original theatrical and the VHS versions have different ending and extra more explicit sex scenes than the DVD version.

Lena's psychiatrist goes to her home and then commits Lena's husband for a 5150, which is a 72 hour involuntary psychiatric hold. It is fanciful that the psychiatrist would make a house call, then commit a spouse of his patient (who is not his patient). Domestic abuse is not likely to cause a 6 month involuntary psychiatric hospitalization. It's also very odd that Ray's attorney would not present testimony of Ray's psychiatrist, unless this was edited from the film. It is very strange that a hearing be about allegations about infidelity, not about a psychiatric hold.

Unrated U.S. video release includes 4 minutes of additional footage with sex scenes between James Spader and Mädchen Amick.
