If you want to see the film in high definition \u2014 and if you want to see the complete uncensored version that played at Sundance last year \u2014 then it looks like you\u2019ll have to get the <a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/movie\/last-days-in-the-desert\/id1118125771\" target=\"_blank\" class=\" decorated-link\" rel=\"nofollow\">iTunes<\/a> package, which has both the PG-13 version of the film (which has been playing in theatres for the past two months) and a \u2018Full Length Director\u2019s Cut\u2019, all for $14.99. Meanwhile, you can pre-order the DVD, which will apparently have just the PG-13 version of the film, at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B01G1SD0CY\/film013c-20\" target=\"_blank\" class=\" decorated-link\" rel=\"nofollow\">Amazon<\/a> for $12.99.
