I have taken the movie version and edited back in the pieces that were edited
from episode 2 and 4.  Of course, I edited back in episode 3, even though it
was in B&W.  The editing was done on 3/4" Umatic equipment.

The thing to note about the movie is that not only were pieces edited out
in episodes 2 and 4, but pieces were actually rearranged.  After seeing the
completed version, one wonders why the B&W section was edited out.  We know
why it was done, but it shouldn't have been.
