I noticed that the film I have on my iPod actually only shows the only Deems Taylor footage talking about "the Nutcracker Suite" in scene 1-PSC 6*2 that it is the only footage I have, and the rest of the footage must have been removed.
Although, I think when RKO Radio Pictures started to release the film theatrically, they originally removed all the Deems Taylor footage and the "Toccata and Fugue" segment. Probably, still today there is still footage of Deems Taylor that hasn't been discovered or restored.!
Was it really the case in 1940 that "The Nutcracker" was rarely performed and "La Giaconda" was really popular? Or did the storymen and/or Deems Taylor just Not Do The Research?
Oh Hans, is there a Claire de Lune draft? Because I believe that Walt cut the film off at the last minute, and I was wondering if you have a draft for it?
