*In speaking to the process of creating the Legion Director’s cut, Blu-ray producer Cliff MacMillan explains further as to the journey to get there and the outcome. “We conducted an exhaustive search through a pallet of film assets from the original shoot to re-create William Peter Blatty’s intended vision. Unfortunately, that footage has been lost to time. To that end, we turned to VHS tapes of the film’s dailies to assemble the director’s cut. However, even some of that footage was incomplete, so scenes from the theatrical re-shoot were used to fill in the gaps. This director’s cut is a composite of varying footage quality from the best available sources.”
Jotenkin toivoin, että alkuperäiset negatiivit olisi löydetty. Ilmeisesti ovat hävinneet/hävitetty
ikuisiksi ajoiksi? Muuten julkaisu näyttää hyvältä ekstrojen suhteen ja kyllähän tuo Director`s Cut kiinnostaa laadusta riippumatta.
