Last night we lost the fight to save 1001 Roxbury Drive. Only one Beverly Hills City Council member voted against demolishing this historic & stately home. Each day our city seems to be losing the magic that made it what it once was. This whole story makes me so sad and angry.
@DominiqueRevue Was introduced to Cluny Brown at this year's @nitrateshow Loved it. So delightful. The best Charles Boyer performance ever. Jennifer Jones a total delight. In my pantheon, Lubitsch is #2 (Hitch is #1).
@nitrateshow A great weekend! Thank you to everyone on Team Nitrate! 🎥 🔥
We want to shout out again to the projectionists at @nitrateshow who did such an outstanding job preparing all the films for projection and handling all the changeovers. They worked hard to make sure the event ran smoothly in the face of perf damage and shrinkage. Bravo!
It's a damned rare thing to get a one-two punch of GPO/Crown Film Unit in any context, much less publicly exhibited (!) on 35mm (!!) nitrate (!!!). No matter how niche my cineobsessions (and lord do I get niche), @nitrateshow delivers.
@nitrateshow I would not have done well in the Royal Navy in WW II.
It's been a long day, but the folks at @nitrateshow put this image forth for Trail of the Hawk (Edward Dmytryk/Ramblin’ Tommy Scott, 1935–50, US) and I need context. Also, it's a recut rerelease of a 1935 film, so it's an oddity I may not see elsewhere. #nitrateshow2022

@nitrateshow 👋 we were in the balcony. Good movie, wish more footage of Asta Nielsen existed.
after the @nitrateshow shorts program this morning (featuring two wild len lye shorts) we saw Schlussakkord (1936, dir. Detlef Sierck), Meshi (1951, dir. Mikio Naruse) and Rope (1948, dir. Alfred Hitchcock). #nitrateshow2022 is crushing it & we’re having a blast!
