"Around the World in 80 Days" | ||
| Warner Brothes has both the 30fps and 24fps original [65mm] negatives. This picture is in no way going to be a lost film. These negatives are stored in archival conditions. Some tests are planned in the near future to check condition. Without actually making some section prints one can´t make a statement whether or not the negative is in poor condition. As far as I know, we have not been approached by Mr. [Robert] Harris, but at any rate have the talent in our company to do this work in-house. A decision regarding full restoration has not yet been made. Warner Brothers is very concerned with proper storage and preservation of all their films, and this ["Around the World"] is no exception.
