Editing Becky Sharp (film) (section)

=== UCLA Film and Television Archive Restoration ===

Beginning in the 1980s, the [[UCLA Film and Television Archive]] restored the film, under the supervision of archivist Robert Gitt. Director Rouben Mamoulian appeared at the premiere of the restored print at the [[Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences]] theatre in Beverly Hills.

Stage 1 was completed in 1984. For stage 2 (around 1988), [[Italy|Italian]] print elements, which allowed the picture on the last reel to be upgraded, while the somewhat splicey [[English language|English]] [[soundtrack]], were edited to fit the Italian print material. For stage 3, completed in 2002, a print was obtained from the [[Netherlands]] that allowed improvement in both picture and sound quality.<ref name=ucla>[https://www.cinema.ucla.edu/restoration/becky-sharp-restoration ''Becky Sharp'' Restoration] at the UCLA Film & Television Archive website</ref>
