I’ve put this project on hold for the time being, while I do some accuracy research in light of a tape of Jules and Jim I’d received this past spring and some info I’d more recently in old newspapers about the subtitles being created specifically for the broadcasts. From what I’m aware thus far, only the 1984 Embassy release of Seven Samurai has the original broadcast subtitles, so that’s where I’m starting my investigation into how to create as accurate an experience as possible without access to any extraneous materials at all, let alone the best, from the original broadcasts (i.e. the original Film Odyssey titles, the Champlin host segments, and the featured Frame of Reference interviews).
