Winbert, the first 20 min. of "The African Queen" takes place at the mission with Katherine Hepburn and Robert Morley. Bogart visits and leaves. Then the village is burned by the German soldiers. Bogart comes back and he and Hepburn spend the rest of the picture on the boat until it sinks in the storm. Then they are captured, there is the big explosion and then it's over. An excellent film and well worth seeing in it's entirety.
Now, for your enjoyment, I have just uploaded a new film.
With Halloween approaching, I have decided to post a horror classic. Brian De Palma's "Carrie" from 1976. As it is rated R, the link to this will only be found here. Please note: There are some graphic scenes, adult language and nudity in this film. Viewer discretion is advised.

As discussed in another thread, there are two different reels for "Carrie". In this version, Mrs. White, played by Piper Laurie, is mentioned but never seen.

This is a re-post of a film I put up a while back. "Logan's Run" is one of my big guilty pleasures. I just got this today. I now have four copies on super 8mm. This one is the best yet. Slightly faded but, compared to the others, it still has color. The sound is very good. There is some dirt but no lines. No splices. No VS.

I am still on the search for a pristine copy. Until I find it, I will enjoy this. Or, I can also watch my VHS, my laserdisc, my DVD or my Blu Ray. I'm also searching for a better copy of my biggest guilty pleasure of all time, "The Poseidon Adventure". I have three and they all have problems. This is the best of the lot.

This used library copy (my first from 25 years ago) does have a few splices and is a bit beat up but is the least faded. Best of all, no narration. The other two are narrated and are pretty faded. Oh, well. Someday.

Ah, yes. The other 1x400 "Carrie". It's still on my eBay saved search list. It would be great to get and edit it, in order, with mine. Anyone willing to part with it?
Brad, always great to find out I'm not the only one who loves "Logan's Run". Most people I talk to think it is sooo cheesy. And I tell them that's WHY it's great. I couldn't get enough of it when I was young. Before I purchased my first copy, I can't tell you how many times my name appeared on the library card stuck inside the box. Unfortunately, when I finally bought it from them, the card had been destroyed. I am so happy to have found a "new" copy. My original was spliced so bad I couldn't even watch it.
As far as U8 film in B&W, the only title I have is the 1x400 of "Psycho"
