FORMAT: 35mm CONDITION: ★★★½ NOTES: Preserved in the ICA’s archive. Beneath all the scratches, and the trailing lines that only seemed to overlap the first two circus performances, this print looked magical, as it ought to given its lack of commercial availability. After the third reel, a little hiccup saw the fourth projected in noticeably less focus in the centre than the previous ones, and slightly off position. The rest of the print saw the projectionist wrestling to get it positioned properly and in the correct focus again. DATE: August 13th 2023 CINEMA: ICA LOCATION: The Mall

FORMAT: 35mm CONDITION: ★★★★★ NOTES: Part of the series of von Trier re-releases, preceded with a video essay by Ari Aster meant to introduce The Idiots and Breaking the Waves. Almost too clean for its own good, all things considered. DATE: August 12th 2023 CINEMA: Curzon LOCATION: Soho

FORMAT: 35mm CONDITION: ★★★★ NOTES: Opened on the BBFC card used at the time, like the prints of Carol and The Lost City of Z did. Would be a 9/10 print if not for the lines and wet marks trailing down the right side of the entire print. DATE: August 10th 2023 CINEMA: BFI LOCATION: Southbank

Disney went as far as to remake this into a live-action feature film, which reads more like a musical on stage than anything, and fixed the definitely controversial issue of the woman being reduced to a love interest by elevating her role to the main protagonist. The crowd surprisingly loved it!

FORMAT: 35mm CONDITION: ★★★★ NOTES: Presented before the 4K restoration of Black Girl as part of the Ousmane Sembène season, with subtitles projected digitally. One missing frame, but a crisp, very polished print. DATE: August 8th 2023 CINEMA: BFI LOCATION: Southbank

FORMAT: 35mm CONDITION: ★★★ NOTES: An original release print that is half as faded as the Black Hole print. Starts off impressively, although the issues commence in the second reel which for the most part is covered in trailing lines, and some signs of damage are present from the point when Morris visits Ellen!Annabel.

FORMAT: 35mm CONDITION: ★★★★½ NOTES: One of the Disney season’s Touchstone Pictures screenings, knowingly preceded with an intentionally gay Disney film, Steven Clay Hunter’s SparkShort Out. An incredibly well-preserved original release print, although the third reel is the least stable, while the closing reel features the most dust. DATE: August 3rd 2023 CINEMA: BFI LOCATION: Southbank
