I just read that it was re-edited and approved by Ayn Rand for release in 1986. Has anyone seen this?

BTW: My current selection for Dagny Taggart is Kate Winslet.
She's pretty but pouty & girlish. Taggart should project intelligent, arrogant, self-assurance. Cate Blanchette? Not a girlish beauty but when she does the queen thing in the her role in "Elizabeth" it's pretty good. Also her role in "Aviator."
