I remember seeing it in the Franklin Theater in Nutley, NJ. in '64 with a friend among row after row of screaming girls. I missed so much of the dialog and little nuances of the film.
ReplyDeleteI saw the remastered version with my wife last week in a theater and it looked and sounded great!! We both loved it and I've ordered the blu-ray disc.
