Women in Defense (1941)[edit]

Hi there, Racconish. While trying to find a decent copy of Tanks, a 1942 documentary narrated by Orson Welles, I happened across a better version of a 1941 documentary narrated by Katharine Hepburn, Women in Defense. Could this be uploaded in place of the NARA file, or in addition to it?

And if you ever come across a copy of Tanks, I don't recall ever seeing it mentioned in any of the Welles books I have. Details here. Thanks. — WFinch (talk) 03:28, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, you are too good! Thanks and thanks again. — WFinch (talk) 04:09, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Before i could upload the George Eastman Museum reconstruction sourced from a YouTube upload, @Yann uploaded the full video file, featuring the opening Criterion/NFPF logos and introduction but without the music score (similar case with File:The Mystic (1925) by Tod Browning.webm).

As we previously discussed, you mentioned me that you believe "the introduction is copyrighted and should be cut out, regardless of any credits in the file description." --Mayimbú (talk) 05:31, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Mayimbú: yes, will do. — Racconish💬 09:40, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
