SCREENING: Regular DATE: December 12th CINEMA: Vue LOCATION: Westfield Stratford NOTE: Saw this dumb Peacock comedy in an empty screen with letterboxing and a busted front speaker, after watching it on Netflix with VPN and deciding after three minutes that it wasn’t worth sitting through all that compression for 90 minutes.

FORMAT: 35mm CONDITION: ★★★★★ NOTES: New BFI print, my last screening in the Powell + Pressburger season. Aside from the point when we first see Hoffmann and Antonia together, this is practically spotless on its first public run, even though the BFI kind of biffed its presentation (forgetting to dim the backlight, shift the first five reels into position at the start and turn projector B on).

Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World

FORMAT: 35mm CONDITION: ★★★★ NOTES: A cut and stumble while Maturin falls for Aubrey’s weevil joke and three prolonged scratches in the middle of the entire fifth reel, but otherwise’s she’s (pretty much) in her prime. DATE: December 8th 2023 CINEMA: The Prince Charles Cinema LOCATION: West End
