nirbateman from originaltrilogy.com requested that I check out the new Once Upon a Time in America Extended Director's Cut blu-ray and when it arrived a few days ago, I could see that he was right about a strong blanket yellow tint having been applied to the whole film.

With this release I have gone ahead and removed the strong blanket yellow tint across the whole film, bringing all the other colours in the film back to life, making the film lot more natural looking and pleasant to watch.

This version of Once Upon a Time in America has also had the colour saturation boosted to more closely match the stronger colours of the first Once Upon a Time in America US Blu-ray and previous DVD releases. This more colourful version is now my preferred version of this release.

I hope you like what i've done here. Please post back here with feedback of what you think of this release after you check it out, it would be greatly appreciated.

I want to grab it but the links for the free users provided are super slow now.

Just tried downloading the first part from 1fichier as a free user. 800mb downloaded in 13 minutes with speeds of 800-1000KB/s. That is very fast for a free user IMHO. Perhaps the problem is with your IP limiting download speeds on certain hosting sites?

I've used 1fichier before to get a project of yours and never had slow speeds. It was around 800-1000KB/s like you said, nothing on my end has changed though.

I'm downloading from a european IP while I'm guessing that you're downloading from a US IP, which is why you're getting the slower speeds. Going through a european proxy or using a VPN in europe would probably fix the speed problems you're having I imagine.

Ah ok, i was going to ask where your from and that answers that. It must be why the slow speeds then, yes i'm in the US. Damn

Try using one of these free french proxys, 1fichier is a french service so you should get the best speeds. Go for the ones providing better anonymity.

Otherwise you can pay a very small amount, 5-10 dollars a month, for a VPN service that protects your anonymity online and allows you to access those 1ficher links via a european IP, which should fix your speed problem.
