First of all, well done to Garret and all those who helped. Brilliant job on the recobbled cut. Sounds amazing. Haven't seen it yet, but am busy downloading (at about 50% already). I came across this thread beginning of the week, and have been glued to it, reading all 81 pages in 4 days. I feel like quite the expert on the subject now. Amazing, the amount of things that has come your way, because of this thread and your excellent work. Anyway, reason I'm chiming in is just to give you a little piece of trivia. I keep reading how Calvert's first cut was named 'The Princess and the Cobbler' and only released in Australia and South Africa. Ok, first of all, I don't recall a theatrical release here in S.A. But, the vhs copy at my video store is definately not called 'The Princess and the Cobbler'. It's called 'The Thief and the Cobbler'. Look, it's definately the 'princess' cut, as far as i can tell from your discriptions of it : witch scene, war machine sequence, silent thief, etc. But the box definately says 'Thief', not 'Princess'. Weird, ha?
