Tom,I have just looked at the original post,and for some reason I did not respond to it but it is an excellent print.With the new footage it completes the movie,and we know what a difference that makes!!
Looks so much better on a big screen, especially the battle scenes.The whole scale of the film is brought to life ,most excellent.👍👍


Tom Photiou sais Thank You!

Thanks Gwyn, before i bought this for my Brother i have to admit to have only ever seems bits and pieces of it on TV when flipping channels.
This is a print that, like Dances with Wolves, i have projected four times in just a few years. Originally i bought a cheaper flat version with some fade, then a few months after this scope print came up so i grabbed it. I believe this one bay be slightly edited for TV time, however, the pre title sequence is three minutes longer than the previous.
The reason for the extra part being made was because the original section was actually faded and full of splices, then, suddenly it spliced into the reat of the film which is all Agfa low fade.
Now the new section (and the titles,) more or less complete this excellent, all action film.


Gwyn Morgan sais Thank You!

Robert, you'll have a good idea what it looks like in scope now, it really does make a huge difference.
