Hello Ron,
thanx for the comments re: restoration. Just one quick note: Criterion had nothing to do with either restoration or the info plates you referred to, these came from here.
my best as usual & stay healthy :))

You did not hear me. The globe WAS CHANGED due to an exchange way AFTER the initial release. What was seen then and up to very recently was the change made post the RE-RELEASE under a different distributor. As a result, the Universal Globe was cut on both features. They now have been restored...
And, now, also for the first time, the respective CORRECT GLOBES. Before, one was practically the duplicate taken off the other feature due to damage; and dupes and prints caried over the "effect". This is now corrected (globe starts originally from a different position and has different...
I’m generally constrained by both time and budgets.
Not to misunderstand - so am I. And the workflow is tight-fit accordingly. But it fits the needs in a very different way, allowing things that are impossible or extremely hard to achieve otherwise / "other ways"...

I’ve always selected elements via benching, a flat bed, or sample scans of a dozen shots or thereabouts. Never had a problem.
Why would one need to color two million frames, when a raw file, and a test will give the same results.
A raw file, especially a logarithmic one, certainly does NOT. But...
Hey Bob,
Thanx for the comments.
Re: your Q: This was due to a (very conscious and) clear - and in retrospect, correct choice re: workflow. Several key factors played into this:
- the actual mechanical status (how damaged are the various materials - what is, really, the BEST SURVIVING SHOT)...
Hello Robert,
hope this finds you well and in good spirits.
Two things:
1) the so-called "above the title" credit is NOT unusual or IN ANY WAY problematic at ALL. It has been and is traditionally used in Europe this way by archives as well as rightsholders such as the Murnau Foundation for...
Robert,
to err is human. It IS a NEW, all encompassing (all still existing pre-print materials were involved/scanned/used) - true to the word and meaning - restoration, completed after almost 2 and a half years total in 2018. It simply took a while 'til everything was finished up and delivered...
This I do not know. But this would merely be a question of budget - and a very good idea to do.
Oh, no ... This is not good news at all. Any chance the estate may change its mind (assuming this is the problem) ?
7S was originally released mono in Japan, the stereo tracks contained on the...
The article is now more than a year old - and it has not gotten any better with age. It is literally littered with errors and, worse, nonsense. 7S is being restored from second generation fine grain positive and third generation duplicate negative elements, not prints. As for the sound: that...
David,
with regard to the stock(s) used - I have (and worked with these, and, of course, others, quite a bit in the last decades).
But there is (a lot) more to this as there are a number of ways the materials could be affected both during production (use of lenses and filters) and post, in...
The ABOUT THE TRANSFER details of Criterion's BLOW-UP may hold the most likely answer.
It lists the following:
"This new digital transfer was created in 4K resolution on a Director film scanner from the 35mm original camera negative and a 35mm interpositive."
The sequences in question could...
