Guys,

We know that Derann released 2 version of this famous movie.

While price must be different, if we put a side the price issue, which version do you think is more enjoyable?

Secondly, do you guys notice any color issue on either both version (I mean, warming or even fade problem)?

I know Brian Hendel has the 3X600 and wanted the last reel as he said there was too much missing and there was a last reel on UK Ebay. I don't know if he bought or not. Maybe he will chime in.

Both were released well into the LPP stock era so any reports of fading would be surprising to say the least.

The 3x600' cutdown is brilliantly edited.Every song is included and the story still comes across. I have both versions and my print of the full length film has a number of annoying negative marks that take away from the enjoyment of the film. The shorter film is a touch grainier but still looks good, with very nice color. Plus, there are times when you can't sit through the whole 174 minutes!
