We have seen this edition on laserdisc, and at the time of its 1997 release this was the best available home video edition of the film, having been mastered from a compilation of the best surviving footage in two 35mm prints and a 35mm duplicate negative.

The film is accompanied by a small orchestral score conducted by Robert Israel.
