I like all three differences found in the 165 minute version: 1. The 70 or so missing seconds in the opening sequence take nothing away from the brilliant segment; their loss actually tightens up the sequence in a good way. 2. No defense for the Harmonica rising scene except that I like it...

I agree with this, with the exception of the color of the dirt fields in the crop dusting sequence. The brown tone of the dirt in the blu-ray has *never* looked right to me and somewhat takes me out of the film at this point whenever I watch the BD.

Can't wait for... How to Succeed In Business wiithout Really Trying The Fortune Cookie Our Man in Havana And, as much as I hate those 'now that you're going to release these, what about this' messages, is there any chance Twilight Time will release that other missing 1960's Wilder widescreen...

Absolutely! Wonderful movie with am amazing Bernard Herrmann score!

Unfortunately, not yet. I'm waiting for all of the unreleased UA Wilder films. Is there no love here for HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS WITHOUT REALLY TRYING? The MGMHD showing a couple years ago looked great, except for the horribly windowboxed credits. I thought this would be a no-brainer as I...
