Yes so is mine David,its in lovely condition considering I do not trust any ST as far as I can throw them in terms of random scratching, a minor miracle has took place so far with this film of mine.
It's a real favourite of mine from the optical range I have.
My Crocodile Dundee, while not being perfect for colour, isn't bad at all! These tend not to go red, more browny orange for some reason. I have two sets of prints but none are perfect at the opening scene which for some reason starts off leterboxed???
All well looked after prints tend to still have quite a few black lines at the opening in exactly the same manner on both prints so maybe the negative they came from wasn't perfect.
Sometimes, as in this case, a film is so enjoyable, it doesn't really matter to me if the print isn't LPP so long as it still has good colour. These two and one or two other top optical titles are still very desirable features to somebody like me to collect. [ April 04, 2015, 09:03 AM: Message edited by: Andrew Woodcock ]

I wouldn't mind a print of "wanda" someday. I happen to have "Croc", and though there's the slightest color shift, (you only notice it in the night scenes, otherwise, a very good print.
One thing that always got me about this print, are the titles in scope, but it's an incredibly letterboxed scope, almost like the laserdisc on Ben Hur, which had a very wide image.
