Trivia
Actor Anthony Perkins appears in drag in one sequence in this movie.

According to film critic Roger Ebert, the picture "required massive cuts in the movie before it could qualify for an R rating" in the USA with studio distributor New World Pictures reluctant to release the film stateside with an X rating.

Composer Rick Wakeman's soundtrack is based entirely on Antonín Dvorák's "From the New World" Symphony. This was partly an in-joke on the releasing company who were similarly named New World Pictures, and also partially as the film's director Ken Russell's "take" on America.

Q
What are the differences between the Theatrical Version and the Director's Cut?
A
Crimes of Passion is one of the movies with serious problems with its theatrical release in the US. Drastically cut for an R-Rating, foreign coutries were better off because the movie often was released uncut.But then again, a so-called Unrated Director's Cut with two re-inserted plot scenes is available in the US and also in Sweden for instance. Except for that, there are further differences when Bobby looks at the book with Japanese sex positions. A detailed comparison between both versions with pictures can be found here.
