As a small child I saw the original theatrical release in all its wide screen glory. I recently viewed the Disney DVD and I can say the transfer looked great and the sound very good. What bothered me is that i believe that there is material missing from the original theatrical realease. When Ned is carried off by the Police he is put in jail i believe and his release from that jail is because he is supposed to be the harpoonist for the US vessel. Granted that this is based on my memory but if you watch the film, there is no reason for Ned to show up on the vessel. I suspect that the orignal was edited in the course of showings to reduce the run time and this and probably other portions of the film are lost or not restorable to compliment the rest of the film. Anyone agree or have any other information? -Dick
