Center frame is missing from Difinitive Collection. Completely missing. Not even one field of that frame is present on DC.


Japanese Special Collection ('86), Widescreen Edition ('89) "shrinking ratio", Widescreen Edition ('92) fixed ratio
each contains only one field of that frame.


Faces contains both fields (together, not split by telecine)

Faces frame from MeBeJedi prototype (IVTCed)

It's a splice point. It's got yellow tape across the top. Nevertheless, it's a frame of film worthy of preservation.
I believe it should be inserted into X0 timecode V3.04 and beyond....

DC's 3:2 cadence is broken at that point with that frame missing.
However, once that frame is restored in its proper position, then 3:2 cadence is restored across the splice,
and also consistent with Faces cadence across the splice.
