"...the 16mm print  was originally purchased and the HFA archivists gently warned me that the print had turned a distinct lavender-rose tone, from color dye fading, a process of deterioration common among color films printed on certain stocks where cyans and yellows die away over time, leaving a strong magenta cast. The first three reels are irreversible magenta, yet the final reel is in its full and original color with no visible damage. Enjoy, ok. Bye."
