Hi, I hope someone can tell me where I can find this film on 16mm brand new or mint. And what type of print available? I mean LPP or Kodack, scope or full?

Many thanks.

I have a pan&scan copy on kodak stock with colors almost still there.
I don't know if a scope version exists, I hope to find one to replace my copy, as you notice quite well the pan&scan in some scenes.

I've got a mint LPP flat print, but it's dubbed in Spanish (and I don't speak Spanish :-().

PS - Scope prints do exist - I had one several years ago.

Hi Fabrizio,

You mean flat print? Believe me sometimes I prefer it to scope print! I know flat print cut some details in left and right, but really give special feeling to me, also look bigger in screen.

Hi Steven,
Sadly, I don’t know Spanish. Good you have MINT copy [Smile]

Cheers

Hi Hamid

yes, it's a full frame flat print but in the pan&scan you may notice the movement of the printer that follows the interesting part of the scene, while in a flat print there's a fixed crop of the image (like many italian super8 prints).

I'd rather have a scope print than a flat one, and screen dimension is not a problem, fortunately [Smile]

Hi Fabrizio,
That is not true. A p&s print is also often called a flat print.

Films made in Scope are almost never just cropped - you would not get the right image.

"Flat" is a term that is a bit overused - it can be used for films that were made flat (e.g. not scope), can be used for scope films that are P&S, and it's original use for for 2-D prints of 3-D movies.

Hi Steven,

my experience on flat print is mainly on italian prints, were image was simply cropped and there was no p&s, that's why I thought they were different.
