Does anyone have access to the 100th Congressional record where George Lucas spoke before the hearing on the colorization of black and white films? As I live in Canada, obtaining transcripts of foreign governmental material is not as easy as I thought it might be. As far as I can tell, he spoke before the 100th congress of 1987-88, which was passed in 1989. I'm preparing some articles on film preservation and the law and these would be absolutely great to have.
I found this index and abstract from the annual CIS publication of 1989 in my university library, but I would have to order the documents from the US:
H521-90 Film Integrity Act of 1987
June 21, 1988. 100-2
iii+164p. GPO $4.75
S/N 552-070-06355-2
CIS/MF/4
Item 1020-A; 1020-B
Y4.J89/1:100/107.
MC89-18539. LC 89-602465
Committe Serial No. 107. Hearing before the Subcom on Courts, Civil Liberties, and the Administration of Justice to consider issues and proposals related to alteration or colorization of motion pictures, focusing on H.R. 2400 (text, p.3-5), the Film Integrity Act of 1987, to prohibit the alteration or colorization of a motion picture without the written consent of the principle director and principle screenwriter of the work. Supplementary material (p.161-164) includes correspondence.
I know some quotes from this appeared on the main OT.com page a few years ago. Does anyone here have some of this material?
