Well put.

Thanks for the compilation. I have already revisited several of these.

There's Jessie the yodeling cowgirl. Bullseye, he's Woody's horse. Pete the old prospector. And, Woody, the man himself. Of course, it's time for Woody's RoundUp. He's the very best! He's the rootinest, tootinest cowboy in the wild, wild west!

Great links. Could you also post Ron Epstein's It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World restoration report to really see RAH in action? Good stuff in there! Thanks.

I think there were more than a few words used, but if you could also include Mr. Harris' observations about the Lawrence of Arabia discs, I'm sure someone would find them useful.

Luckily, right at that moment, an unconscious Argentinean fell through my roof.

He was quickly joined by a dwarf dressed as a nun.

Wasn't the guy responsible for LoA Richard Harns? That's what it says on the back cover!

Perhaps we could talk to Robert and/or Bill Hunt and get them to also post links up at the Bits.

Im hoping his next few words column is about the star wars trilogy dvd.It would be interesting to hear his thoughts on the restoration, especially episode 4.

Why not make this sticky?

It's a crime to join HTF and not immediately be introduced to Mr. Harris. Just keep this thread as a comilation of all his reviews and such on HTF and elsewhere.

Good call Cees, and a very useful thread. For anyone who wants to know what goes into film restoration, and what defines a good one, Mr. Harris' reports are a wealth of information.

Great post. I learn a lot every time Mr. Harris makes a post here on HTF. This will make finding his threads even easier than before.

Yes, I will second that!

I think you're referring to mr. Harris's article on the digital bits. I didn't include it, because (1) it's not on our forum and (2) it's of a different nature than the other ones. But if this is what you meant here it is!
