ARTAVAZD PELESHIAN - Born 1938 Leninakin (now Gyumri), Armenia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artavazd_Peleshyan http://sensesofcinema.com/2012/great-directors/artavazd-pelechian/ "An image may be absent but present by its aura. Nobody has done editing yet with images that do not exist. This is what I try to do in the architecture of my films: to make visible to the viewer images that are not there. An absent representation can be even stronger. The possibility of unreal existence of an absent image is what makes the mystery of remote editing" A. Peleshian in interview with Peleshian realized by F. Niney in May 1991 for Les Cahiers du Cinéma, No. 454, April 1992.

This is the original 1933 French-titled and French-dubbed version of KING KONG. This was recorded on betamax tape way back in the mid-1980's. It was broadcast on Canadian television. While the film was edited to allow for commercials, the so-called "censored" scenes are intact and not re-inserted a la the Janus prints.
