That's quite a list Buttler I've invested in a 'few' DVDs and Blu-rays since lockdown began. The latest popped through my letterbox on Thursday. I'd ordered it about two weeks before. As it was being sent from Chicago, it'd take more than a few days to arrive. Lost Horizon (the 1937 version) was that disc. A fascinating film constantly restored since the 70's. Originally 132 minutes long, it was cut to 118 minutes, then 116, then 108 minutes. The 132 minute soundtrack is complete. Some scenes have had to be filled in using production or promotional still photographs. Not ideal, but it's the best we have. For now. The missing bits might be out there... somewhere... This is a unique way of watching it...

Where do you find the patience watching ALL of those films? I'm lucky I make it through half a film there's so little out there I find interesting. Just finished to watch "The Hateful Eight" (2015, Quentin Tarantino).
167 mins.

Some of Louis Clarks orchestrations (especially on Eldorado and FTM) remind me Erich Korngold who did the score in this movie

Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves is the greatest Robin Hood and nobody will ever change my mind.
It has Jeff on the soundtrack so nobody can deny it's the best .
