Just 33 seconds, but there's a bit that doesn't appear in the finished film. Enjoy

Thanks for posting this Rob, a great find, always good to see extra footage. We could all do with something to cheer us up in these difficult times and I hope that you and everybody - wherever you may be - are keeping safe and well.

August, 1950. They were shooting at the old Port of Marseille. A full, uncut and restored version of this clip will be also available on home video, in the near future.

Great that this is going to be made commercially available. Is there any more detail on who is releasing it, when etc.? Would hate to miss it.

I’ve been asked to keep it quiet until otherwise directed but stay assured that's coming out.
