Actually I dont believe so. I mean the only versions they have that appear to be the '77 version are the two reference/archival copies which they dont let out to be viewed. It may be possible that if you are a well known/renowned film scholar that they will let you view these copies, but I dont believe that to be the case. I will ask my friend for some more information, but from what they told my i get the impression that the archival copies are put in the high tech storage and 'locked away' so to speak.
