Elyas, I believe the sort you have:
4) The Oscar winning short "Ontario"
is "A Place To Stand".
I had this in my possession for a short time on 16mm on loan from Winbert.
You must be having a great time going through this collection.

Cheers
Terry

I watched Winter Kills (1979). This little known film is packed with stars. The casts includes Jeff Bridges, John Huston, Anthony Perkins, Eli Wallach, Richard Boone, Sterling Hayden, and a brief appearance from Elizabeth Taylor. A very nice print.

Watched the French version of Empire Strikes back last night, base scratches all disappeared with a bit of film guard. Great to see the original again.

"Donald and the Wheel" an educational Disney short to check my 16mm machines were still working o.k. It helps to prevent the amp capacitors from breaking down , so I am told, if the projector is not used regularly. Ken Finch.

Sky Riders an old favourite from 1976 in scope and AGFA.

Odd, I had to skip two pictures as they "exceeded pixel restrictions", allthough they where resized as the others and was 555 in size.

Yes, you are right Vidar, I just realised it myself. Must have gotten a temporarily brain collapse when I did that. Oh well, it must be a sign of getting on in age. Sigh!! [Frown]

I watched the 1992 Comedy drama, "Peter's Friends". I never thought I would come across a 16mm print of this and it is quite special to me. I actually worked on the film as a runner and my name is on the credits. Many thanks, Paul Foster!

Sunday we had a Christmas show in our little club. We saw the films posted in 8mm (sorry there was a couple of digital pictures there too, not 8mm) and Gremlins ... These are 35mm prints by the way

And yesterday we saw a print of The Town That Dreaded Sundown, which had a lot of wear at the beginning and end of reels, but over it was better than expected. Colours were good

I had a scope print of The Town That Dreaded Sundown. I saw it in a theater when it came out. Later, obtaining a 16mm scope print, as an adult, I thought it was rather silly. Funny how different you look at things as you get older.

The Final Countdown, scope. A great film to have, its one of those sadly overlooked at the time of release.

I love the smell of film in the morning.
