The HD restoration is SUPERB. It removes all the distance created by the choppy, faded, unsharp images of the original (excellent) film. This 1961 movie is an incredibly significant document. I am utterly grateful to see it. Please move forward with restoration of the other Forrest Films! Hats off to you!

Fantastic job. Love the retro fireworks display at the end! Fireworks made in the USA in those days.

Thanks! I, a native Sanduskian,
worked @ The Point for a few weeks in June of 1961 just before joining the USN for two years.
