BK: I fully took the point you and Dan (The Man) were making re: inclusion of the short version. I simply don't share any warm feelings for that cut film after having seen the restoratiion. What the studio did to the two stars' performances cutting key scenes was a cultural crime.
Being given both the theatrical and roadshow cuts of "South Pacific", however, I can appreciate that folks can love something they admired for so long because I know many folks who prefer the theatrical cut. I can't ever watch the theatrical cut having now seen the roadshow presentation. I always thought "South Pacific" entertaining, if not particularly enthralling, in its cut state. I was totallly thrilled when I saw its restoration, and I knew the old cut would never be a satisfying expenditure of time for me again. Ditto "A Star is Born".
Perhaps they should have thought of adding the emasculated "A Star is Born" as a bonus. For those who want it, I hope it comes your way one day.
