Great film, I remember getting a copy of one from Derann when they had a few in and watching it on a little Fuji SD Auto with optical sound.

First film I saw with Jeff Daniels in.

Its a very affecting and fun film.

Best Mark.

Also had Maxie at the same time and Claras Heart. If only they had been done on LPP ?

I didn´t know polyester faded. I have a 16mm LPP (polyester) print of "Purple Rose" and it´s color is perfect.

Seems to be different colors on the shots there. Are some with filters?

Vidar, this is a film that goes from color to Black and White or sepia tone for the scenes of the old movie on the screen. This really is one of Woody Allens best. I have an unfaded print of this and it's one of those films that tears at your heart. Great, but sad ending to this!

It's about a lonely battered woman who goes to the movie theater to escape reality and the hero of the movie suddenly comes off the screen, into her life! Meanwhile, on the screen, the other cast members sit up there, waiting for the person to return to the film! One of Woody's greats!
