All superb choices selected there Del.

Bruce Lee films in particular, would have sold really really well I think if Derann had managed to release any.

I wouldn't have been interested in any, but I know plenty of collectors who would have loved them on film.

Home Alone would have attracted at least 3 buyers ha ha.
Tom, yourself Del and myself at the very very least!😊😊😊

just read your post re: Bruce lee films..... Enter the Dragon was released as a 8 reel feature by Columbia, The Big Boss, Fists of fury, The Way of the Dragon and Game of Death were released again as 8 reel features in letter boxed format by UFA. In Germany. with of course German dialogue. I have them all they all still have good colour.

Hello Del, to be honest I have't dubbed the UFA releases into english, still there are mostly action so are easy to follow.

I have "Enter The Dragon " on warner brothers 4 x 400ft in the clam shell box's, bought from Derann second hand from Derek himself one Friday afternoon. Colour still good, as
said would have been a very good seller on low fade through Derann. I was at the right place at the right time, I think I paid £70.00 for it, I had the 400 footer which was a very good cut down, as a life long fan of Bruce Lee it was a no brainer.


David Skillern sais Thank You!

I've got a copy of Enter the Dragon 4x400ft and its great - the only niggle I have is the repeat of shortened credits on reels 2,3 and 4 which could have included more actual film footage - including longer end credits - which are very short indeed.

Hello Paul Browning and David Skillern,
I first bought the feature print of Enter the Dragon in 1980 from Jeff films in America, Ihad to wait a long time for it to arrive from them. When it arrived I discovered that each of the four parts were self contained films and had some repeated scenes in the different reels and not consecutive reels making a feature length film. I discovered this was how the first batch of this film was issued by the distributers
Columbia (who had a tie in with Warner Bros for 8mm releases). I understand that they had an awful lot of complaints about this release which is not surprising, so Columbia had to reissue Enter the Dragon
properly edited as a proper feature film..
