This movie is turning into one of my top 5 films I believe. Just love the feel, photo, editing, music, acting ... It's all top notch. Highly recommended for anyone who hasn't seen it.

Sophie's Choice with more than a few splices
This hair is looking to be part of my print. I cleaned, blew air, removed the film and cleaned again, nothing without film in. As soon as I loaded the film again, there it was :-/

I saw my fourth, and for the present, last, adaptation of a story by Alistair MacLean The Hostage Tower. Probably the weakest of all films based on his works, but I have made up my mind to try and get as many of them as possible. At least the copy is on AGFA so the colours are spot on.

One of my latest additions Gambit from 1966. Michael Caine is a burglar who enlists the help of showgirl Shirley MacLaine in the plan to rob the "richest man in the world" Herbert Lom. After first having seen the plan work flawlessly (in the burglars head) we then see it in real life, where everything goes wrong. The copy is in scope and, I believe, Technicolor, as it has a clear edge and a grey soundtrack.

A very nice print Lars...this is one of my favorite. I love how Michael Caine's vision of how perfectly the caper was going to play out turned out quite different from what actually happened. I've seen this film on Ebay a few times...but I'm looking for a flat print. Nice pics

Super color Lars ... I saw some swedish school films Husforhøret (norwegian title), Utan hem (Homeless) and Verdens Barn Thailand (Children of the World Thailand)
Bugs Bunny and Pierre Bear (with Woody)
Laurel & Hardy in Hog Wild and Me and My Pal
and a feature (originally in color, but mine is Black and White) A High Wind in Jamaica
Was cheap, so I can live with the quality ... 2-3 dollars each of the shorts and 13 for the feature

Saw a very faded The Guns of Navarone on 16mm today. Paid 10 pounds for it, at least I got 3 good reels (and two rusted ones) and 5 cardboard boxes :-)
It's liveable with filters (left pictures) but very red without

Todays little gem on 16mm was Gremlins ... Love this movie to bits ... Saw it last week on Blu-Ray, but prefer this, even if the Blu-Ray was sharp :-)
She is lovely :-)
Good old Dick Miller, always a pleasure to have in a movie
