Private Benjamin TV version

#1 by Tom Photiou , Sun Aug 14, 2022 5:09 pm

As the film room stays at a cool 20 degrees or less we decided to get out of the heat and view this print before listing it on ebay, (on the sales thread)
An excellent print with three or four splices on each reel, presumably where the adverts would have been. Great colours on low fade stock and hardly any marks worth mentioning. At least with this one you can show it to all the family.

If it was a theatrical version rather than a TV version i would probably keep it, from what ive seen, it looks as though the main difference is the short section where her husband dies on there wedding night, we all remember the scene, in this version, just as things hot up, you hear it, but the camera pans to a wedding ornament.
To be fair, it isn't a big deal, but i am just making way for other titles. This print is actually quite stunning to look at, very vibrant colours on a virtually unmarked film, and it is a classic 80s comedy and as i understand it, one of the biggest box office films of 1980, aside that, Goldie Hawn is very nice viewing.
