From U-8 on a 400' reel. I was so happy to see that Universal retained much of the "Evey" storyline (the segments involving Lou adopting the little french girl). My daughter is 4 and she really identified with the Evey character and U-8 edited this one really well. They even kept in a snippet of the reprised "ties-in-the-hat" routine. The remaining 8 minutes are simply "Midget Car Maniacs", but U-8 did such a nice job segueing the new footage into the old. My print is sharp and bright and the sound is phenomenal. They did such a crappy job with the 400' "Meet Frankenstein" that I was pleasantly surprised by the good job they did on this one - I wasn't sure what to expect. I may actually hunt down the others to have the whole U-8 A&C canon.
