Viewing Notes
Not a Christmas movie but does feature Darren McGavin, the dad from A CHRISTMAS STORY, in a prominent role!
Justin screened Pyun’s original film before Golan chopped it up and restructured it. Big difference and over 2 hours long compared to the 97 minute theatrical cut. Hopefully Cynthia can get this version released but I’m sure it won’t be easy given the IP.
My score is reflective of the event not just the film. Justin gave a 40 minute lecture afterwards discussing the history and doing scene and score comparisons. It was really interesting and he’s clearly very passionate about this movie and Pyun’s work.
