Totally agree Doug regarding "Local Hero"
years ago I was disappointed that early DVD release was 1:85 picture from a 4/3 ratio, not a 16:9. I was over the moon when later I got a DVD with a 16:9 transfer. I still don't have the blu-ray as yet. "Local Hero" is one of those films you never tire of watching, its brilliant in every way. The music by Mark Knopfler also ads a huge amount to the mood of the film
. I got the LP a while back, I think its also been re-released on Vinyl at present.
Anytime Mark Knopfler does a live concert he always includes the theme from the film![Smile](https://8mmforum.film-tech.com/vbb/core/images/smilies/smile.png)
Two night ago my daughter came round for a visit, after evening meal I said you must watch this movie, what's it about?, can't say but the title has two words, give me a hint? well the first word is "The"
right OK lets watch it
. Well I really wanted to see her reaction to "The Beaver" afterwards she said that was good, what would you give it out of 10? reply 8.5 not bad I thought![Smile](https://8mmforum.film-tech.com/vbb/core/images/smilies/smile.png)
Last night it was the blu-ray of "The Perfect Storm" I remember Hoyts in town had huge advertising of it on the outside of there building, you don't see that kind of advertising these days
.
Tonight "Billy Elliot" on blu-ray still have the 35mm trailer on that one. "Billy Elliot" did really well at the cinema, I like the music, much of which is by T-Rex.
