Umbrella Entertainment are releasing a region-locked (at least according to their site) theatrical and director's cut Blu-ray of MASK.

Re: Peter Bogdanovich
Happy to announce this event that I've been working to put together for the better part of six months:
Hopefully this gives more people in the Southeastern U.S. an opportunity to view the film.

I don't drink, but without a stable program I could probably be swayed to uproot my life and move down south for one

If anyone does do this would it be possible to have a recording of it for archival purposes?

Re: Peter Bogdanovich
Pretty cool. I guess we'll get more news about this film. When it premiered at MoMA, they mentioned that they still needed to "finish" it (for example, the sound mix hasn't been polished and they hadn't done any ADR) but it's been a couple of years now, so I wonder if it's finished and they're just looking for a distributor.

AFAIK, we're screening the original workprint that's played at MoMA and elsewhere. At least, I haven't been told otherwise.

Re: Peter Bogdanovich
FWIW, it doesn't look or sound egregiously unfinished, and I would go as far to say it's perfectly releasable, but I imagine modern day standards are much more polished. (I vaguely recall one or two moments of dialogue that probably should be re-recorded as the on-set sound wasn't too great, but I've seen plenty of great indie movies with rougher moments of audio than that.)soundchaser wrote: ↑Wed May 01, 2024 3:44 pmAFAIK, we're screening the original workprint that's played at MoMA and elsewhere.

Re: Peter Bogdanovich
Squirrels is such a good film, y’all. A perfect encapsulation of Bogdanovich’s career, with — and I can’t believe I’m saying this — a touch of Rivette’s intertextuality and play with identity.
I might have more to say in the future, but in sum: if you can see this, don’t hesitate.

Re: Peter Bogdanovich
I haven't seen his entire filmography, but I thought it was definitely on par with his better work and a fitting capper. (I have not seen the compromised version.) FWIW I'm not a huge fan like some on this board, but I generally like his films and wouldn't hesitate to call at least a couple of them truly great works, if not most of them.

Re: Peter Bogdanovich
Congrats Soundchaser that you were able to do this I'm sure it must have been a pretty fun event, also just out of curiosity, did anyone actually shout your name before the screening?

Re: Peter Bogdanovich
The one I would compare it to most is They All Laughed. It’s got a similar feel in terms of the ensemble, the general structure, and even the closing sequence and credits.hearthesilence wrote: ↑Wed May 29, 2024 11:07 pmI haven't seen his entire filmography, but I thought it was definitely on par with his better work and a fitting capper.

Not to toot my own horn too much, but we had a fantastic crowd in both numbers and appreciation. I can’t believe this film tested so poorly — at times the laughter was so loud that it drowned out the dialogue.
Alas, no. I’ll just rest easy that my wallet is safe.TechnicolorAcid wrote: ↑Wed May 29, 2024 11:25 pmCongrats Soundchaser that you were able to do this I'm sure it must have been a pretty fun event, also just out of curiosity, did anyone actually shout your name before the screening?

Re: Peter Bogdanovich
I actually liked it much more than They All Laughed but that would be a great double-bill. Also should extend my congratulations as well, I forgot you organized this!soundchaser wrote: ↑Thu May 30, 2024 12:42 amThe one I would compare it to most is They All Laughed.
