Title music and pre-code cuts


In the trivia notes here it mentions that the surviving version of this film has replaced titles and underlying music. The underlying music in the DVD release is different from that in a 16mm print I used to have which was definitely late '30s-early '40s. Maybe the music in the DVD is the original music.

I suspect that what we have left today might also have some pre-code goodies removed from it.

I wonder if whoever prepared the DVD bothered to look for an original version.

Did anyone notice the opening credits music was the same tune as a song from "Chicago" (2002)?

Perhaps the OP just wants to reach out for some sense of community.
