Re: PRE-CODE HOLLYWOOD @ THE ROXIE in March

Re: PRE-CODE HOLLYWOOD @ THE ROXIE in March
The print of ISLAND OF LOST SOULS that we ran was a 35mm studio vault print directly from Universal. Criterion has just issued a beautiful DVD of the film and it's quite possible it was made from this print. On a small screen this is a brutally powerful film; on the big screen, in a pristine print, ...

Re: Someone's having a birthday!
Thanks, gang, I really appreciate your posts! Lynn, that shot of one of my idols playing one of my idols is fantastic; thanks!
And Moira, you're never late as far as I'm concerned, thanks. Kingme, that's my favorite avatar yet of yours! And Nancy, thanks
for being such a nutty little troublemaker!
