When watching the Kwai movie many years ago, the host introducing the movie made mention of a remarkable story. After filming the movie, the film reels (the one and only copy) were "lost." They were later (weeks/months) found sitting out on an airport tarmac - having been exposed to the heat - but fortunately were not damaged. I just don't recall if the airport was in Africa, the middle East or elsewhere.
