One day the workprint will be found. It's all a matter of patience.

Im glad I found that Demo tape lemme tell ya!!

But the start of the movie is still in LETTERBOX even on the DEMO. You would think it would not be!! (It isnt in the theater)

Ah well..... A good movie!!

I've had maybe one or few demo tapes over the years. A lot of fun I can tell you and I believe Enemy of the State is one of Will Smith's best films. Had he followed it up with The Matrix instead of Wild Wild West, I'm sure it would have done wonders for him.

Yes I agree!!!!!!!!!

I heard the elite didnt like that movie cause it revealed too much!!

I'm a film buff. I try to watch as many as I can.

I would love getting a copy thats not letterbox at the beginning (when they are talking at the lake)

I wonder if copies over analogue cable are full screen at the start?
