Last night I watched the Kung Fu Classic of all time my man Bruce in ENTER THE DRAGON which is a great digest in a 400 foot color sound reel. I just have one question if anybody has this reel in the white clam shell box. I had a problem winding this reel up it kept going over the 400 size reel and going into a 600 reel size. I finally put it on a 600 reel so it would fit. Why would it not fit its original reel? Now it is on a big reel next to a empty box.

Yes, Lee. They are the keepers of the sacred words. "Ni", "peng" and "nooowom"!
I'm afraid I shifted my 16mm print of "Never Say Never Again" last week. Were you watching the Derann or a 16mm print?

America (1924) -directed by DW Griffith.Blackhawk print.Standard 8mm Silent

I took a look at a reel of America-Griffith's last great silent feature. It is a film about the Revolutionary War. A great effort, shot in upstate New York. Landmarks of the American Revolution shown include the Boston Tea Party, Paul Revere's midnight ride and Patrick Henry speech.

Nice screen shots Richard [Smile]

I'm finding it tricky to get good pics of these older B&W films. I visited Boston for the first time three years ago and got a great a history lesson while there. My grandmother always told us kids we were related to Patrick Henry...I've never confirmed that...but, "Give me liberty or give me death."

Last year I bought about 10 library copies of 8mm silent films. Half of them were Helen Holmes train shorts. I finally got around to watching one... The Wild Train (1915). In this film Helen single-handedly saves lives in two instances of runaway trains. She seems to come up with ingenious ways to solve a dire predicment. Fun to watch

Akshay that looks like the print I bought from Pat? Yeah your right I did a review of this film. But my favorite is Thunderball with the Car, the jet pack, under water camera work and the beautiful girls. Thunderball

Yeah Tom, colors are good and the sound is superb. My pics look darker/duller than the actual projcted image though. May be next time I will get better photos.

Laksmi, there is a nice homemade box, could be Pat's. If so, then you auctioned it for $900?? What highs this print has seen!!
