600390, The Magnificent Ambersons. Posted by The Analyst, Fri Feb-24-12 02:25 PM
My first time seeing it. I'm sure it's been discussed here before, but I don't think I've even taken part. Obviously a strong contender for the single biggest "What If" in film history. Personally, I still think it's got enough strong material that it retains its overall excellence - it's just too bad that it's clearly not the masterpiece that it most likely was before 50 minutes were chopped off and a new ending was shot and tacked on without Welles' involvement or approval...
