FORMAT: 35mm
CONDITION: ★★½
NOTES: Another Scala highlight, introduced by former Scala cinema staffer Jane Giles and presented with a 35mm trailer for Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! and a VHS transfer of Jo Menell’s aptly titled Scala favourite, Dick. Has very much faded over the years, in the sixth reel most of all, and stutters at the midpoint in the second reel. The projector was fighting for its life trying to get the first ten minutes of the film and the first two minutes of the third reel in focus.

FORMAT: 35mm
CONDITION: ★★★★★
NOTES: Seen a month after the 4K preview; print looks great. The only occasions when it looks significantly worn are when Duncan transports Bella over to the ship, Alfie confronting his dead wife at her wedding and the beginning of the credits.

CONDITION: ★★★½
NOTES: The BFI was about to show this from a DCP later this evening, but I rightfully picked this dusty old print instead. Has lost a few frames overtime, but the colour is in tip-top shape.

FORMAT: 35mm
CONDITION: ★★★
NOTES: Academy print screened as part of the Scala tribute season. Except for the second reel, the print looked quite battered by burn marks likely from different reels and a few giant splotches of dirt.
