Yes. Don't get too excited too fast, though - the print kinda looks like shit. It's going to need a lot of restoration work to make it acceptable for general release.
That is incredible. Even with the amount of work it might take, it's a huge glimmer of hope. Just a few years ago the very idea of doing our own transfer from 35mm seemed a pipe dream that was utterly unattainable. Now, with someone out there making the first attempt, it's only a matter of time before we have something truly stupendous. I mean, look at the evolution of the fan preservations based on home video sources... This is likely our very big "first step into a larger world"... Color me thrilled (and very patient).
