Trivia
Donald Sutherland had played supporting parts (mostly small) in Britain for nearly ten years before his roles in "The Dirty Dozen" and "Joanna" brought him to Hollywood's attention. When he began receiving American offers, he had a problem, which was that he simply didn't have the money to fly out to California and support himself and his family until deals were finalized. He turned to fellow-Canadian Christopher Plummer, with whom he had worked in both "Hamlet" for television and "Oedipus The King" for the cinema. Despite the fact that they knew each other only slightly at that time, Plummer advanced him $5000, and Sutherland's Hollywood career began.

Versiones alternativas
There are three different versions of The Disappearance (1977).
Version 1: The original director's cut which runs at 101 minutes and is healthily non-linear, influenced by the temporal experiments of earlier films such as Hiroshima mi amor (1959), Venecia rojo shocking (1973) and A quemarropa (1967).
Version 2: An unauthorized, shortened, re-edited version by Fima Noveck that runs at 81 minutes and attempts to put the narrative into a more coherent order by reducing the complexity of the narrative by coding the instances of non-linearity as flashbacks; and reducing their frequency and length.
Version 3: A third version that runs at 91 minutes but maintains the jumbled time frame and comes across as a leaner and more abstract version of the original.

In the film, Donald Sutherland plays an international hit-man, set out to find his missing wife which is based on the novel 'Echoes of Celandine' by Derek Marlowe.

I was lucky enough to view Stuart Cooper's original cut of 'The Disappearance' which has never seen and is not available on DVD.

Just like his film OVERLORD which has been released by the Criterion Collection and become a classic, 'The Disappearance' holds it's own. The acting is first rate, the original music is lush and the John Alcott's cinematography is outstanding.

It is a shame that untalented producers are allowed to tamper with the original works. The original is in a non-linear format. Perhaps the reviewers should watch the original uncut/unedited version and then I would think they would revise their reviews. It is brilliant! Hopefully it will be screened at a festival in the future so all can enjoy.
