Yesterday show a la fresca: "Kiss meets the Phantom of the Park". Bad and silly, but I still have a soft spot for the band and the film shows good views of Magic Mountain.

Jean-Marc - Really? Kiss meets the phantom of the Park? where do you get all of these amazing prints? I am so jealous. Just don't tell me if you have attack of the 50ft woman on 35......

I watched the Movie Milestones vol 1 (Walton films) short on reg 8 tonight.... thanks Jean-Christophe....I wish there was more of the Miracle Man w/ Lon Chaney.
Does anyone know if the blackhawk or walton version of this short is better quality? The walton one look pretty good

Mark,

A 16mm of Rocky.

Very nice. I find that is a tough one to locate.

Describe the stock of yours please?

Tonight my wife and I watched a warner brothers programmer on 16mm called Wings of the Navy (1939)it was a decent little patriotic melodrama, with enough old school innocent humor to keep it from getting too heavy... Tomorrow night i'll be projecting some silent films under the stars in Echo Park as part of the Edendale 100 years celebration..Should be fun..

Last night show: "The Grass is Greener", great scope Technicolor print.

Prompted by Dino's showing last week,yesterday I dug out another Benedict Bogeaus/Alan Dwann color western of the fifties,SILVER LODE,with,again, John Payne,Lisabeth Scott and Dan Duryea.A most interesting title.On the same program,TEXAS TOM and the Ben Turpin classic YUCON JAKE.
Today,just finished TARZAN'S REVENGE,with Glenn Morris,along with NATURE IN THE WRONG,A funny, bizzare comedy where Charley Chase finds out he is a descendant of Tarzan!

Oh Panayotis I love those Dwann westerns, and Yukon Jake is one of my favorites. For years I only had one reel of it on 16mm, but recently got a beautiful full 2 reel copy on 9.5mm.

Tonight was a special outdoor screening at the Echo Park Lake. It was done by the Echo Park Film Center in conjunction with the Echo Park Historical Society to celebrate the 100 year anniversary of Edendale (which is what the area of Echo Park was called back in the silent film days). We screened (all on 16mm) films that were made in the area, and there were around 150-200 folks there to watch .. Some Keystone comedies with Mabel and Charlie Making a Living (1914), Mabel's Married Life (1914), Barney Oldfield's Race for Life (1913), but then came a highlight the Mabel Normand/Keystone Kops film A Muddy Romance (1913). This one was shot right at the lake where we were, and everyone got a kick out of seeing it get drained. Afterwards we all shuddered at the thought of what they might find if they drained it today. Next came an ultra rare Harold Lloyd Lonesome Luke short called The Cinema Director(1916) which features Luke as the box office/ticket taker/usher and security guy at a local theatre. The whole time Snub Pollard plays the irresponsible projectionist, and Bebe Daniels as the girl of Luke's desire. We finished the evening off with the Tom Mix film The Law and the Outlaw[1913/1922] from Selig Polyscope company who were the first to set up shop in Edendale. This was the 3 reel version from 1922. It was a very fun night and we had live musical accompaniment from local musicians. 6 movies/ 6 different bands...It was a blast and hopefully i'll get a few pictures to post as I was too busy running the projection.

For diehard completitionists,it is possible to make more complete copies of several silent comedies,if you have the chance.My std 8 copy of YUCON JAKE is composed mainly from the Blackhawk version with additions from the Film Office one.Pictorial quality of both is equally exellent,but,Blackhawk is edited differently and wrongly with scenes out of order.So I sat down,several years ago,and put "my" copy in the proper order. Also,bearing in mind (and feeling ashamed to admit) that "Blackhawk copies weren't always the best or most complete",although of course most of the time they were,I found out on several Chaplin comedies that Walton's and FO's copies were always exellent and although edited to a uniform length and therefore missing a few minutes,often include scenes not in Bhawk.THE COUNT and A NIGHT OUT are two that come to my mind.
Bhawk's ONE A.M. is only one and a half reels long,and rather contrasty.So,if one has the patience and can track down copies,here's work for you....
And since I am in the mood,and if you didn't know,the one reelers THE CAMERA KID and THE HOLLYWOOD KID are reels one and two of THE HOLLYWOOD KID. JOYRIDERS and LOVE IN A POLICE STATION,edited properly, form about a 14 minute version of LOVE IN A POLICE STATION, which I don't know if it has been released complete by Bhawk. This one is a curiosity as each copy includes in several occasions half of a scene (!),the rest of which is included in the other copy (!!),and they both manage to tell the story !!!

I think my theme for tonight turned out to be 16, faded and dupey, hehe

First was a buddy cop feature called BUSTING (1974) with Elliot Gould and Robert Blake as vice cops out to bust the city kingpin. Original print but on Eastman that is turning.

Next was a romantic early sound drama THE LADY REFUSES (1931) where Betty Compson plays a down on her luck lady with a good heart. A fairly obscure film unfortunately the print was a bad Thunderbird dupe from a C&C Movietime print so there must be better prints out there.

Last was the worst quality, and odd Killiam short with clips from silent films and his "Hey there's Mary...what's She up to?" type voice over....It had some clips from obscure films like The Christian (1914) the first Vitagraph feature (I've included a picture of Earle Williams from it)and others.

The indoor cinema I'm building here in Provence is now operational, although not quite finished. It now sits 6 and we still have 12 extra seats to install. Pics of work in progress next week.

We had an inaugural screening yesterday with my superb LPP scope 16mm print of "The Empire Strikes Back".
