Hello Dick,

To me, cut downs & digests are the same, whether they are what Castle termed "headline" additions (50 ft.) or the later 3x400 "mini-feature" releases. If I were to categorize my collection I would include the slightly abridged 4x400's in the same group as full length features.

I find it difficult to categorise my films, so i now just put them under the headings of 50ft, 200ft,
2 x 200ft, 600ft, (FEATURE 3 X 600) , etc. Cut downs and digests i would group together, but like Doug i would include abridged versions under features.

The other half thinks i'm up to something. Shes right of course.
