Re: Ancient History (4.00 / 2)

AFAIK it was shot in B/W, but I do know that two language versions were shot at each set - one with everyone speaking English, and the first released version where the languages are in context - with subtitles.

Some scenes were dubbed both ways.

Re: Ancient History (none / 0)

I haven't found any info on when that was done, though there was certainly a colourized version available for the 1994 50th anniversary of D-Day. My guess is that it dates from 1994, because the expense of the process would have been recouped from anniversary sales.
