    I’m not wrong about anything because I didn’t make a declaration of certainty. I simply stated that relying on previously released DVDs for accuracy can possibly lead you down the wrong path. If that’s not the case in this particular situation then so be it but I left room in my previous post...

    Perhaps some funding because the following Warner films they listed as being part of their Preserved/Restored Films program. The information was copied and pasted directly from The Film Foundation's website: WARNER BROS. ACT OF VIOLENCE BODY SNATCHER, THE DEVIL'S DOORWAY, THE EAST OF EDEN...
