Is there any news about this film being re-released?
very unlike Life of Brian (IMO even the Criterion is marginal, but the best they could find).I’m glad someone thinks this too. I picked up the CC version this weekend and was very disappointed in the quality of the audio but mostly the video. Looked like a dirty print and the colors flickered in several scenes. Thought it might be a faulty disc.
I’d love to see an SE Mr. Creosote!
Well, the Life of Brian is not taken from a "dirty old print" - it's an interpositive, which is made directly from the negative.I knew that since that it is listed on the packaging and the CC web site as well as Terry Jones' stamp of approval. Does it matter what kind of transfer it is when it still looks like a dirty print?
Does it matter what kind of transfer it is when it still looks like a dirty print?When it's the best transfer that's likely to be possible given the existing materials, it matters.
Seriously, would you like my early-80s Warner Bros. VHS (in cardboard box) to see what a dirty print really looks like?
