... Save a film from destruction -- adopt one
After collecting films for over 75 years I am now reluctantly parting with them. Looking for a new home for them. Hopefully the flashing images on the screen will be with the true collector for some time to come. They are a national treasure.
If you need more information on a title, just ask. FILMS can be returned in 7 days if they are not as described. Dennis
BLOG UPDATE 6/22/20NOTES FROM A OLD FILM COLLECTOR (UPDATE #2)My discussions with RKO with Vice President Harry Giddleson were touchy, because unlike the other people I dealt with Harry really hated film collectors. I asked him what about the old RC and FBO silent films. And I never forgot his reply "You mean like the readers of The 8mm Collector, (now called CLASSIC IMAGES) There are only 5 left and I would rather burn them before they got them.
I have had several inquires as to what else in in my film room. A beautiful Movieola Flat bed!
When I look at the old prints from before the 1950’s even without a projector the images are beautiful. Shot on 35mm, then reduced directly to 16mm is a sight that is breathtaking. Thanks Kodak for killing the dream by taking the silver (resolution) out of the picture in 1950. When I was a kid I had a nitrate print The Invisible Man. Outstanding. Now today you cam see the film as it was in the Ultra version of Blue Ray.
Then the fiasco of Eastman color, doesn't fade away from our memory.
And while were at it thank 20th Century Fox for engineering the demise of Technicolor! In 1969 Fox was charging 15.5 cents a foot for 35mm. Technicolor was charging 50 cents a foot for 16mm. Several years later it was published in BOXOFFICE what Fox did.
Luckily Ebayers have liked my brief comments, here’s one of particular interest, Just had to comment.....I used to work at 20th Century Fox circa 1978-1986 or so. We used to call it “Pink by DeLuxe”.One day (I was a sound editor) I happened to walk by the vaults. There was a stack of cans sitting out in the full sun, and it was about 100F outside. After a few days my curiosity got the best of me, and I wondered what these cans held. I looked at the label and about choked. “BUS STOP R1 SCOPE CUT EK NEG” It was the camera original for the entire feature. This was right about the time that VHS started making an inroad and the studios started to realize their catalogue might actually be worth something. I couldn’t believe it. I opened one can, gingerly. Yep. It was cut negative.
I learned later that DeLuxe tried to pull a good print...and the snow was all urine-yellow...... I’m guessing they had to go back to the YCM protections.
New message from: icus878 (45Yellow Star)Wow....I had no idea DeLuxe was undercutting Technicolor so much!
A story you may like. I worked on the feature MAKING LOVE with William Reynolds, ACE. I asked him “what was the biggest editing disaster you ever had?” He said, “oh, easy.....reels 1 and 2 of CAROUSEL!” He explained that the negative cutters at DeLuxe were so used to 35mm negative cutting, they forgot to adjust to the differential synchronizer for the 55mm CinemaScope 55 negative....David Ice (look him up on IMBD.)
In the 70’s I put my love of film to good use, along with Jim Limbacher, we started a series of education films on the history of the movies. Ably assisted by John Muri who played for the silents, and whom could take a Barton Organ sound like a Wurlitzer. Then throw in actor Bill Kennedy for narration, we were off and running. "...And who, disguised as Clark Kent, mild-mannered reporter for a great metropolitan newspaper, fights a never-ending battle for truth, justice and the American way!" Remember that familiar voice on TV's Adventures of Superman (1952)? That belonged to Bill Kennedy.
Our first production was “The Lost World Revisited.” At the first public screening Paul Killiam was there and graciously endorsed our project. By the time we were done we had made nine productions and it only ended because Walter Reade (our distributor) went skiing and slipped fatally. Walter Reade/ Sterling was a match us for us because we had access to their library which we drawled upon up for two Educational TV series we produced, It took another year and they closed up shop.
