      Richard Elfman put out a computer colorized version a few years ago- but he made it look like a 1930s Technicolor movie in terms of the color scheme, so it’s one of the only colorized movies I’ve ever seen that actually improved upon the original. He also put out an even newer edition where he digitally replaced the head of the blackface guy at the beginning with a clown. I haven’t seen that version. If he just updated the head and not the voice, though, why bother?
