  1. Just watched Dunkirk in 15/70mm at IMAX Waterloo felt drained and exhausted wow , has to be seen in this format or the largest screen you can find in70mm !
  2. Panavision two sound cameras plus not sure how many MOS cameras . don't here much about Arri 765 now .
  3. The Nutcracker film has been shot and is in post .
  4. As a very very junior on the fx unit in gravel pits not to far from Pinewood . I can't remember 65mm being used ,would have looked better if had been .
  5. Kenneth Branagh has just finished shooting "Murder on the Orient Express" on 65mm Super Panavision 70 here in the UK processed by Cinelab London.
  6. That is a 65mm Panaflex the camera Kubrick used was a non-reflex 65mm handheld.
  7. Have you seen the original film with Clint Eastwood ? Not seen this remake as not opened here in the UK yet .
  8. Interesting I found Deluxe prints for Fox had nasty blueish tint but the same lab doing work for United Artist say The Great Escape for instance had yellowish tint. Metrocolor was warmish brown Technicolor IB prints no tints natural. Movielab Pathe just bad prints in all areas . Rank Labs here in UK where the credit would normally say Eastmancolour were also very good no strange colour shifts . The Neg all cases would have been a Eastman whatever number at that time it was called . I would also add Humphires Labs here in the UK who produced excellent prints.
  9. I saw Rogue One 15/70 Imax film print and thought it was very high contrast interesting you thought it was low contrast.
  10. There are still B series around Stephen Murphy used them a couple of years ago on a short he shot "Abdullah " Bill Pope used then on "The Worlds End " both shot in UK .
  11. I was wondering about the wages of Studio contract Cinematographers say from mid 40's to mid 60's Leon Shamroy ASC worked at Fox for this period and shot most of their big movies .There are others at different studios Russ Metty at Universal others at MGM ,Warners etc . Just would like to know what these people earned back then . Anyone know ?
  12. So candle in barn could be " The Greatest Story Ever Told ". and your last grab " Murder on the Orient Express" .
  13. I would say that in 1961 in the UK it would have been CinemaScope lenses . I have a DVD of "TGON" which looks fine as you say it must be a TV setting problem.
  14. David your first opening shot , is it "Targets"?
  15. P.S. I should have said that Mole Richardson [England] had a factory in a place called Thetford which is in Norfolk or maybe Suffolk .
  16. Mole-Richardson [ England} lamps were all that colour here in the UK and Europe the company was bought by Lee Electric in the 1970's .
  17. I really loved that diffusion and the overall low contrast look .
  18. I saw this last year at a BAFTA screening I am amazed it got any nominations really disliked it.
  19. So was it the colorist not the cinematographer who was responsible for the "look" ?
