sigh...another day of not running any film. I'm doing some screening room remodeling and I have a stack of sheet rock where my screen is usually standing. Hopefully in a day or two I can have it all where it should be (on the new walls) and have the screen back up and in use again. I'll be far from finished with the "new" room but at least I can watch film again.

oh, and hey Dino....I think you forgot me again. [Razz]

OSI!!!! Did you slide in under the rug?

Watched my print of Rocket Ship a couple of weeks ago, then saw a few scenes from it in a film called "The Projectionist" on TCM a few nights ago.

Wow had to save this from page 2, but a good chance to mention my amazement about something...I listed this 16mm print of THE CAINE MUTINY for sale for $100 on a different site, and not a soul bit, I even said looked like grey track IB w/ slightly muted blues..I now know it is on low fade Agfa stock, but I wonder sometimes if people get misled by the way most colors get saturated these days on TV and DVD's...OH well I put it on ebay, and we'll see what happens, maybe people don't like this film, but I think it is one of the greatest character manipulations of all time, with Bogart being an amalgam of the 3 primary characters. The insecurities of Maryk, the stuffed shirt strictness of Keith, and of course the cowardice of Keefer, which together add up to Queeg's paranoia...

Haven't posted here in quite a while!

Anyway, last night's 16mm feature was:

LOOKER (1981): 2x1600'

Good condition Scope theatrical print. Some scratches, slightly warm and faded color. Not the best print but perfectly watchable and an enjoyable film!

Welcome back Tom, and congrats as Looker is a great one to have...

Took a break from the projector fiddlings tonight to watch something....This time it was one of the only serials available on 9.5mm, which I fired out of the Specto since it had running titles. A french production entitled Belphégor from 1927 (Pathescope 2 x 300ft, SB 818) which stars René Navarre, who was also in the serial Fantômas (1913)and another 9.5mm film entitled L'angoisse (french pathe 130-134, 5 x 30ft). The film is a blast, with masked thieving marauders, clever contraptions and many intriguing shots..One of the characters looks quite a lot like a future iconic figure of horror, Dr. Frankenstein's hunchbacked helper Fritz (Dwight Frye)..In the pic I took there is a great deal of resemblance to the Frankenstein lab, perhaps James Whale or more importantly Charles D. Hall who was the art director, was a fan of this serial...I also know that there was an 8 reel French version released that I am rabidly on the hunt for....

Great screenshots Dino ...

Just curious ... did "Vampyr" ever get released on 9.5MM?

Good question Osi, but to the best of my knowledge none of Dreyers' films are on 9.5, which is a shame.. [Frown]

Truly sad, as that would have been right at the highpoint of 9.5mm sales! Perhaps one will pop up. Since i don't happen to collect 9.5mm, if I run into one, I will e-mail you foist off,

most soitenly!

In fact, I think I'll contact some of my German film friends over there who collect 9.5. It might have been released there but not elsewhere.

Thanks, Dino! Good to be back!

LOOKER is a favorite though I do wish the print was low fade. At least it's in Scope and the overall quality is very watchable.

Osi thanks that would be great...... [Big Grin]

Tonight one of my best friends had a b-day party for one of his kids, then I came home and the kids that live above us were apparently bouncing bowling balls on the floor.....So Rambunctious kids it is.....Mickey &........Mickey...and a test.....

Started with some 9.5mm Poussinet PAUVRE PECHEUR (1927, Mickey the Fisherman, Pathe 1 x 300ft ) starring Mickey Rooney, then followed it with Our Gang in HURRAH FOR THE HOLIDAYS (1922, aka Saturday Morning) and finally some pics from a new test on the 28mm projector with the new elmo lens..It filled the 6 foot screen and was very sharp...

I saw the KING AND I and it was great the 400foot super 8mm sound color reel still looks good after 30 years. The color is still holding up. The songs are great and it was edited just right with all the main scenes. -

Took time to watch a 16mm crime quickie...Sort of the proto-CSI called SECRET SEVEN (1940) w/ an early cameo by the Beavers' dad Hugh Beaumont....My 2 favorite elements of the film are 1) The police cars are identified simply by a stenciled "P.D." on the side of the door. and 2)the way the guy is tricked into a taking a polygraph. ....

hope you enjoyed 7 . It's a little film that carries more interest today than it deserves because of all the CSI shows...and , of course, van Sloan appears. Hope it was worth the money. Great screen grabs, by the way.
