Subject: Run time Author: Susan [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 06:37:22 12/22/06 Fri In reply to: Eva Danø 's message, "Jamaica Inn, a comparison between the different versions" on 12:33:12 09/12/06 Tue I just found the version of JI that I taped off of AMC a few years back (back when they were commercial-free!), and that too is 98 minutes; it says "KINO" at the beginning and end, so I assume it's the same version as the KINO DVD. Also, there's nothing between the scene of Joss at the Squire's mansion and the cave scene; from what I saw, it's exactly like the Miracle version. (I still haven't had a chance to check my long-long-ago-recorded Beta version! Unfortunately, that will be a chore because my Beta machine, which barely works anymore, doesn't measure the tape in minutes, so I'd have to sit through the whole thing *and* stay awake so I can time it.)

[> Subject: Re: Jamaica Inn, a comparison between the different versions Author: Eva Danø [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 21:07:26 06/25/07 Mon Jamaica Inn, as shown on Turner Classic Movies today: I clocked it at 98 minutes 40 seconds. It compares with the Miracle DVD, with a few seconds extra. I haven't run a side by side comparison, but I think the extra few seconds are the beginning and ending few frames that was my only complaint about the Miracle DVD. The picture seemed just a tad washed-out, but it is quite clear, and I didn't notice any boo-boos. Since this movie is DEFINITELY in the Public Domain, I don't feel uncomfortable mentioning that I recorded it on my DVR, and I wouldn't mind making DVD copies for those of you who either missed it or don't have access to Turner Classic Movies. eva@meranch.com [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
