By director's cut, do you mean the extended version?
I know Kubrick cut the US version down for European release because it wasn't received very well and thought people would prefer it if some of the dialogue was excised to improve pace, but I don't know if he ever expressed a preference between the 119 minute and 144 minute cuts.
