THE BITCH1979starring Joan CollinsTV PRINT - FLAT
The owner of a trendy disco starts having problems with the men in her life. After an extramarital affair destroys her marriage, she seeks funding to save her London disco from bankruptcy.
A good 16mm print with good colour.
The prints physical condition is good with moderate wear. There are various light lines evident, though nothing thats particularly distracting.
There is a green scratch on the extreme right ...of the film on the first reel that lasts around 5 seconds. I counted one splice during this reel, where I believe a couple of frames were lost due to the jump in the musical soundtrack at that point. Otherwise just the fine lines that come and go. The second reel is a little splicy at the start; I counted 7 splices, though they all ran through the projector without issues, and there was little disturbance to the sound or picture evident. This is all confined to the first 100 feet, and I suspect there might be some minor sprocket damage during the first 100' of this second reel, but it might have been down to bad splices. However, it ran OK through my Elmo. The film could do with a clean, as there are few specks and marks near the start and end of each reel. Overall however, the print is pretty clean, and the sound is very clear. Colour is very good. The opening titles appear short (not sure if this is correct), and the closing titles are complete, but end immediately after the final caption.An opportunity to see Joan Collins on 16mm - I have never seen a copy of this film on 16mm anywhere else.Good colour and sound.Mounted on 2 x 1600' reels.Total footage 2666'
Running time 75 minutes.(Original release 89 minutes)
