Missing scenes???

Rating: 9/10 (24 April 2006)

Someone wrote on another site "my parents, watching it on television once, thought they remembered a scene where Ernest Borgnine really did beat up on Sinatra." This is absolutely correct. My friends and I saw it in the theater and talked about the beating Borgnine gave Sinatra for many days afterward.
Those few minutes are missing from the VHS I purchased and not in any rentals. What happened to that scene? Did Sinatra have it removed? Is it deemed too violent to repeat? Does anyone know where we can get a true copy of the movie?
This is one of the best movies Hollywood has ever produced. People who haven't seen it even talk about it. Even if it was colorized, it couldn't be better. I recommend "Eternity" to anyone who wants a glimpse of 1950's movie making at it's finest. Then during the film, imagine Borgnine pummeling Sinatra merciless and leaving him for dead. The beating takes about five minutes.
