Haven't watched this in maybe 15years. Last time we were watching it, it started a couple of minutes late due to some interruption on the TV channel.

We didn't think much about it, but then as it got to the end, the station decided to correct their schedule at that point. So they just chopped the last 5min off the movie and switched to next program!

What a nasty thing to do to your audience who've invested 90min in a movie already.

@ottaross the @internetarchive is a HIGHLY underrated source of great classic movies. I wish someone had a great frontend for sorting through their catalog of full length films to view, download, or stream... Granted I know turning them into a glorified streaming service would just tax the absolute hell out of their infrastructure at scale... a guy can dream lol.

@WXQ4987 Yes, a great resource. The search for movie titles doesn't always pop up what you want at the top of the results, but it's often in there none the less.

Going to throw a bit of cash their way in my next 'donation' round.
