This version contains 35 minutes of footage, plus the overture and intermission, that was cut prior to general theatrical release: "Restored footage has been transferred from surviving elements of varying visual quality"

Original mono soundtrack was remixed to full stereo from the original 16 track master tapes.

This is a reissue of the Pioneer Special Edition [PSE92-23] with no changes to the content. The only difference is a change of the first side break to earlier on side one, which works much better: The Pioneer LD break is in the middle of a shot.

There are new production notes on the back, which are fairly in-depth, as were all such notes from Columbia Laserdiscs of this period.

There is gatefloat during the opening title sequence, and some sound effects appear to be missing on some of the exterior scenes expanded for this edition.
