How and Why the Z-film was altered

[Peter Lemkin]

FWIW, Tom Wilson, using sophisticated computer modeling and analysis, felt one shot came from the sewer - as have many others. Much of his work, while outlined in a book, is still being closely guarded by his family and not released for researchers to vet or inspect the work he did in detail. I have personally tried, without success, to get the family and their lawyer to think about releasing Wilson's work to some university archive, etc. My requests are met with silence except by one involved who says they are powerless to move the others. Sad how the research community [in this case the family of a deceased member of it] don't work together. Personally, I think Wilson's work has great potential for validity - but needs validation - and that can not be done without access to his original working files, notes, databases and equipment, programs, etc. This thread on the Z-Film is very interesting! I speculate, without proof, that the 'other film' some few have seen is the original - before doctoring in speed, frames, added 'artistic' work, etc. I think to put the Z-film 'debate' to rest, getting hold of a copy of the other film will be necessary.
