In October 2017, Croydon's David Lean Cinema (a Community Interest Company largely run by volunteers) completed a project which resulted in its digital projector, and one of its two Kinoton 35mm projectors, being mounted on metal platforms that can be wheeled along a track system. This rectified keystone distortion by placing the digital projector in a central position, but also enabled it to be wheeled to one side to enable 35mm projection. Unfortunately, and partly due to the amount of electrical disconnecting involved, a lengthy interruption to 35mm screenings followed, but finally 35mm returns at 2.30pm on Saturday 29 October with GOSFORD PARK (2001), which is presented in association with the Cinema Museum. Hopefully this will be successful enough to lead to future 35mm screenings.
If anyone in reach of South London would like to attend, I'll say hello at the cinema. You can book via: www.davidleancinema.org.uk/#gosford​
