Alternative Version
In 2004, after over a decade of searching, Cassavetes scholar and Boston University professor Ray Carney announced his discovery of the only print of the original version of the film, found in a box on the subway before being bought with some other "lost and found" objects. The film Carney managed to find was a pristine copy that apparently had only been screened two or three times before it was lost. Carney has posted three video clips from Shadows I for viewing on his website to verify the film's condition and indicate the presence of a complete credits sequence, which demonstrates that the version he possesses is a final version, not a rough assembly.
