I seem to recall it also used music from The Gondoliers.

Such a treasure indeed. It's like enrering a time machine. I find most other period movies so disapointing. They have actors dressed in period garment but behaving like modern people. The excuse is that they were ahead of their time.🙂

It would have been ‘easy’ to fix if the production had enough budget to do so and if there was existing footage to cut away too. Leigh was not being disingenuous when he said he was angry at himself, if there had been opportunity to correct it, he would have

@@bigred8432 still think It would be easy to correct It. If there's no existing footage you can for exemple zoom in to cahange the angle or cut to another actor and slow down the speed while he says his line.

@@justaguy1451 Yes but someone has to pay for it.

@@bigred8432 How expensive could it be to fix a 3s audio? We live in a digital era and I'm sure Jim wouldn't charge anything to redub It.

@@justaguy1451 Whether or not Jim Broadbent would wave his fee or not, it means studio time (at best you send someone to wherever Mr Broadbent is with some digital equipment but you have to pay for that person and their time) a sound editor (the original individual tracks for the soundtrack may no longer exist, if there is no music under that portion of dialogue that saves a lot of issues but it would still have to be edited to match the sound of the existing dialogue. Not an overly complex process but a sound editor still needs to be paid for their time) a film editor (simple or complex, someone has to be paid to do it) and redistributing a new edit of a film to any platform that has it - that means an enormous amount of admin, the original distribution company are not going to foot the bill for it, so who pays the staffing cost of actually distributing a new edit. Making the change will not bring in any revenue but it will cost a lot more than you think it will. It's definition of something for nothing.
