Viewing Notes
Tried to use AirPlay to cast this to my upstairs TV but either that didn’t work well, streaming in general via Twitch wasn’t working well, or DKUTV was having problems because I had a lot of problems. Finally gave up just before the final battle and finished it on my laptop.
It’s been so long since I’ve seen this it was mostly new to me. Pretty sure this is an extra on one of the discs in the Criterion set.
