I'm talking 'Gone With the Wind,' 'Citizen Kane,' 'It's A Wonderful Life,' etc...
When I pointed it out to one of the professors that the school wanted these turfed, he found a vault somewhere to preserve them. Stupid me, I should have nicked them.
My point is that these things are out there somewhere - there has to be a print of the original cut of Star Wars on 16mm or even 35mm in some storage room.
