Well OK this might not really apply, but I must mention it

SHE'S OUT OF MY LEAGUE

35mm Cinemascope Dolby Digital

New release at the American cinema today.

Cute blonde - funny comedy love story.

If you feel this post is not in the right spot because I did not run it at home tell me and I will not post my night out at the cinema again.

Our last screening was a good and long one, all S8mm. Started with some Blackhawk silents, A Girl and Her Trust & Boobs In The Woods. Next up was a Blackhawk OUR GANG Little Daddy. Then came a Calamity Jane preview trailer, Star Wars condensed best of reel, Roger Rabbit in Tummy Trouble, a theater mobile phone spoof announcement, then The Warriors complete feature.

Pictures were from my camera phone and are very bad quality compared to what we saw on the screen. [Frown]

Yes, The Warriors is a marketing film. They released a 400'(333') selected scenes, 3X400' abridged featurette version, and 5X400' full feature.

I have had them all over the last several years. I personally think the color popped on the screen the best in the 3X400' version for what ever reason....

For what it is worth, I got it in a trade from Patrick W. who had it up for trade for a long time on this site.

Oh, I've been looking for The Warriors for a while now.... tried twice for the 3x400, but was always too late. It's been quite some time since I've seen a full feature pop up.

Had a 35mm night with a couple of mates last night, got through a reel of daters, snipes and tags and through a 50's New Zealand Newsreel. Was playing a 'fruitcake reel' made of random found footage when the tension on the feed reel was lost and 5 layers of film tried to make their way through the projector at once. This ended the night early, but thankfully it was essentially scrap film and the projector is was ok.

Wow, Gian! That's a beautiful looking print. Too bad James Dean wasn't able to continue with his acting. I remember seeing an interview of Elia Kazan saying that Raymond Massey and his wife went over the script 'tooth and comb' until he knew it real well, but James Dean used to ad lib and Massey just hated him for it. So the angry that he expresses for Cal is real.

Last night, Little Orphan Annie on super 8. I recently obtained this feature and watched it for the first time. A charming little B movie from 1932.
