Synopsis:
Legend: The U.S. TV Cut is another personal passion project that has a special place in my heart. I have very fond memories associated with this film, and they have followed me into adulthood, compelling me to do this project. My interest in creating this project would be ignited when I came across a site dedicated to the film and saw various mentions of the TV Cut; the site even had a complete breakdown of the TV Cut written up! After giving a thorough readthrough of the breakdown, I had it in my mind that I was going to recreate this cut to the best of my ability.
