"At a recent Technicolor festival in Los Angeles, the programmer asked Lucafilm if they could show one of the original British Technicolor prints of "Star Wars" but they were turned down. I guess that company doesn't want the original version to be shown again and he certainly doesn't want it exhibited in 'Glorious Technicolor' which is vastly superior to any digital format."
