Our first look at this out-of-print edition shows that it has been transferred in a windowboxed format from an excellent 35mm print held by the George Eastman House. The film is accompanied by a synthesizer music score that is serviceable but not very pleasing. However, this is the only home video edition that has been released on DVD.
