This DVD-R edition has likely been mastered from an incomplete 16mm reduction print. The publisher gives no information as to running time length.
The film is likely accompanied by a soundtrack compiled from preexisting music recordings.
Note that this company apparently has a history of pirating other home video editions or pirating television network recordings to produce their products. Be aware that purchasing pirated home video editions does not benefit the original edition producers nor the composers whose music is often pirated as well.
Sight unseen, this is our recommended home video edition of the film.
