You know, I really enjoyed watching the US released version...my 85 year-old father-in-law turned me on to this movie. Do you know where a copy is a available of the original 6 hour version. I just loved the "you asked for it..." spin in the magic finger shootout.
Legend of 1900
Quite an interesting film for the music, though I gather from some superficial googling that the original was hacked down to 2/3rds of its original length for US distribution. Gilda Butta is credited as pianist, and again some superficial googling suggests that she is playing on five tracks of the CD soundtrack. But who's playing on the rest of them?? Are these digitally "enhanced" versions of the original Jelly Rolls? Or??
