Them Thar Hills and Calamity Jane

#1 by Vidar Olavesen , Wed Oct 21, 2015 8:31 pm

Saw my new Laurel & Hardy, Them Thar Hills, 400' Walton, which was quite funny.








And a 2x1200' from Andrew Woodcock, Calamity Jane with some emulsion stripes, but nothing that scares me :-)

That print looks better than I remembered Vidar! Ha ha ha.

Hope you enjoyed it Vidar and glad it's found a new loving home. It's one of my favourite, most repeatable musicals on eight.

As I always say. .it's worth the entrance fee alone just to see and hear "My Secret Love". One of my late father's all time favourite tunes.

Hope you like the box too!



Vidar Olavesen sais Thank You!

I only wish titles like Pulp Fiction could have made it on 8, so new could have complimented old (relative speaking) where musically oriented films are concerned.

We just needed Derek and Derann for one more decade at least.


Ah well, I guess that's what the unmentionable format has it uses for! Ha ha.

Calamity Jane ...looks a good print. Its a shame about that blasted green "tramline scratch" though. I hates 'em !

Yes David, you're right. This was my third print of this film (1st purchased), and as you can see it suffered in the early days back in the hobby from my now long gone HD.
Say no more!!

It's still better than I remembered though looking at these screen shots. Maybe Vidar soaked it in the bath before projecting it!

I knew only too well that Vidar really doesn't mind the odd "stripey" print though thankfully.
It's gone to a good appreciative home and that's all I care about on this one.
It also wasn't perfect to begin with as we often find now with used prints but was certainly added to by the ole EL MOnster.

I'll bet there are little wax effigies being made at this moment in time for defilers of that unfortunate name, pins poised at the ready,
bet there's one of me too.

Hugh, by ,'unfortunate', are we referring to that manufacturer whose supporters club hold their meetings in a phone box?

I gather this is footy or some other sporting event, of which I have little knowledge not being a sporty type, except for
martial arts which I used to love, being a lot fitter then, but for anything else I plead ignorance.
