I've only bought one title in this series, In Search Of The Castaways (1962), it cost a bit of money on eBay, but it is a childhood favourite. Anyway, it arrived, & I thought it looked awful, as contrasty as hell, it looked like they'd just done a quick transfer of a projection print they had laying around, so never again. It's not some deluxe release of a famous catalogue title, it's just a cash grab (the very oppersite of the Warner Archive). Disney will just have to manage their mega debt without my money.
This makes me unhappy to read as I bought this but haven't watched it yet.
In the 80s MOMA had a Peter Ellenshaw exhibit displaying his matte paintings from various films. Where are they now?
They showed Castaways which I had never seen. It was a gorgeous print and that Disney Technicolor was beautiful.
