I'm starting my search for a great scope feature of this, I would prefer the original Kempski print, but I'll settle for a good Derann. Preferably a stereo copy.

I actually once saw a super 8 optical feature of this, but it had started to brown and besides, though i LOVE super 8 optical features, this really is a film that you need to see in it's original scope version!

Or even better in what was called on original release "Expanding screen 70mm". Which is how I saw it in the West End. The worst thing was the DVD which just masked down the picture in the "Brainstorm" scenes.

Wonder if we were at the same screening Brian in 1983 ouch! We were pleased to be part of the experiment back then.

Been looking myself for a few years now for a Scopey of this one but also great memories of seeing it at Ealing thanks to Mr Wilton back in the day as they say.

This sadly gets me thinking about an old neighbor of mine, Dennis Davern. He was the boat captain working for Wood and Wagner the night she died. As you all probably know, Walken was also with them. Davern publically opened up a few years ago about what he heard that night, but it still hasn’t brought any closure to Wood’s family.

Well guys, I knew I’d seen this Kempski title up for sale recently, and it may still be available... the listing was terminated but who knows it may still be available?
Good luck!

Its a shame! I had a Derran print of this scope stereo feature! And I had two odd reels of it also. Reels 1 and 3. In original boxes. I did not care for this film at all! I sold the odd reels for 35.00 each. And the feature for 250.00. And it took me awhile to sell it! A lot of my customers did not care for this film either! If I come across another print I will put it on the forum!

Osi
There was a very good print a couple of weeks ago at eBay.de which I think hasn’t been sold.
I will look out for the seller.

Hi Oliver,
Think I’ve already posted those eBay.de details?

Rick
You are right!
Thank You
Oliver

Oliver,
You’re welcome.
I dunno if it’s still available but it’s worth enquiring I reckon.
Best,
Rick
