Preservation
By the late 1950s, when the film was being sold as a package on television, the Technicolor version was thought to be lost, since Technicolor discarded most of their 2-color negatives in the late 1940s. After the death of Jack Warner in 1978, a print was discovered in his personal collection, and the film was restored to its former Technicolor state by the UCLA Film and Television Archive.

Famous quotes containing the word preservation:
“The bourgeois treasures nothing more highly than the self.... And so at the cost of intensity he achieves his own preservation and security. His harvest is a quiet mind which he prefers to being possessed by God, as he prefers comfort to pleasure, convenience to liberty, and a pleasant temperature to that deathly inner consuming fire.”
—Hermann Hesse (1877–1962)
