It had been a couple of weeks since I had the chance to run a film, since I’ve been working on my own. So last night I went with Mr. Bond!

Last night I watched "Time After Time" (1979). It had been exactly one year since I screened this print and it's always a fun watch. It's definitely a low budget sci-fi film with early attempts at special effects. However the casting is very good in this film. David Warner as Jack the Ripper is truly frightening and Malcolm McDowell's H.G. Wells is just the antithesis of Warner's character... warm and vulnerable. My print has very good color and sound. I'm so glad to have this film in my collection.

Last night I ran the 1955 film "Picnic." My print is a black and white version... The original was in color. This movie always seems strange to me in the casting. William Holden was 37 and Kim Novak was 22. William Holden plays a character that would be 10 years younger than his actual age. This movie is a typical '50s with over the top stereotypical characters and dialogue. Despite its flaws it's a classic... Especially the dance scene with William Holden and Kim Novak at the picnic.

John Burgess Thanks. As much as my three grandsons prefer to watch digital movies in color... I am always amazed at how much they enjoy watching films with me and even the ones in black and white. True love.

My 16-year-old grandson came over to spend the night. We decided to watch "Some Like It Hot" (1959). My print is on 2 - two thousand foot reels. Some occasional black lines on the sides but very watchable with good sound.
