SCREENING: Regular DATE: September 24th CINEMA: Curzon LOCATION: Soho NOTE: Rented this film for the premium price on iTunes US (which I hate to do) when the fate of its UK distribution was uncertain, just so I could have its hashtags muted for one month less. The difference in scale between a first-time TV viewing and in Curzon Soho’s first screen was, of course, stark.

Max the Movie Guy added 1 item to Films I've seen on celluloid in the digital era list

FORMAT: 35mm CONDITION: ★★★★★ NOTES: Gorgeously printed by CPC London, and unlike their Uncut Gems print came complete with (white) cue marks. Also opened on the Sky Original logo, which was one of the weirdest things I’ve ever seen on celluloid. DATE: September 23rd 2021 CINEMA: The Prince Charles Cinema LOCATION: West End

Max the Movie Guy added 1 item to Films I've seen on celluloid in the digital era list

FORMAT: 16mm CONDITION: ★★½ NOTES: Screened on the closing night of the Open City Documentary Festival, introduced by film essayist Erika Balsom. Scratchy as one may expect, many lines, dangling specks of dust and patches of filth throughout, though not enough to completely deteriorate the imagery. Serious damage on the first minute, some mild but prominent damage occurred midway through the second sky and a hair stuck to the left of the projector midway through the ninth sky, temporarily gathering specks of dust from that point. All this added an extra layer to the experience, to not just observe the transforming skies but the art of celluloid imperfections. At its most potent, the film grain caused a ripple effect so much as to give the impression of looking down, as if the sky was reflected by a stream of water rained down upon.

Max the Movie Guy added 1 item to Films I've seen on celluloid in the digital era list

FORMAT: 35mm CONDITION: ★★★★ NOTES: The changeovers have seen better days and the angle of which it was projected cut the tips off many heads, but prominent dust aside this is a crisp, top-quality print. In fact, it is a pre-captioned print from France, starting with the BAC Distribution logo and ending on interpreter credits. The cinema once again screened the Licorice Pizza trailer in place of the digital trailer reel, to much applause. DATE: September 14th 2021 CINEMA: The Prince Charles Cinema LOCATION: West End
