with Beautiful Eastman colorImpossible to find original 16mm original television print of this cult favorite--and it's safe to say you may never see one for sale again.Produced by Dino De Laurentiis. Starring Jeff Bridges, Jessica Lange, and Charles Grodin.Please Read:
You are bidding on the uncut Reel 4, Reel 5, and Reel 6 of the original television print from the 1978 two... night extended cut NBC broadcast.
I do not have Reels 1-3.The good news is that:
● Reel 4
is a 23 minute recap of the first half of the film (which was televised in two parts over two nights), so you actually get to see the beginning of the movie, rescuing of Dwan at sea from her escape raft, her kidnapping by Skull Island natives and ceremonial giving to Kong, Jack Prescott and landing party searching for her, Dwan trying to escape Kong in the jungle, and the landing party's deadly first confrontation with Kong at the chasm log bridge, Kong battling the giant snake, Jack rescuing Dwan.
These recap scenes are long, and in many instances complete Kong action sequences, so by the time you
continue watching:●Reel 5 (which begins with the sequence of Kong pounding through the giant Skull Island wall, Kong's capture, Oil Tanker returning with him to New York, Kong's exhibition and escape from Petrox Coliseum Event )
and
● Reel 6 (which begins with Kong wandering NY city searching for Dwan, then wading across New York harbor, destroying power station, derailing subway train, recapturing Dwan, and finally climbing and battling helicopters high a top the WTC),
you really feel satisfied that you watched the entire movie. This is as close as I ever got to finding the complete 1976 film on 16mm, and I have never seen another copy of it for sale (and this copy has been in my private collection since the 80s). Condition is excellent. Free Shipping in Continental US only
