Has anyone run the new dye-transfer prints of FUNNY GIRL? If so, did it have an overture, intermission music and exit music?

Thanks.

When I saw it screened at this years Bradford Film Festival it was a new remixed Stereo SR.D print.

The cinema I work at present is to screen this film later this week and will see what the print is like, it will only be played in SR at our venue.

Yes. I saw the 3-strip print at the Royal Theatre in West Los Angeles, and it showed complete with the music. The theatre even had a large sign in the lobby EXPLAINING this concept to entering customers. Of course, it doesn't mean a used print will have them (due to theatres cutting them off, forgetting to re-attach them, etc.

Have they digitally altered her nose for the new release at all? This would of course be an important advancement in digital technology......

Mark

Excerpt from condition running report of screening Ben attended here in March.

‘U’ Cert. 5 minute play in, then sound ‘Columbia’ logo fades in.
10ft ‘INTERMISSION’ title at the end of reel 6. No play out. Pulsed at 40ft.

2nd half has a 2 min play in, then picture fades in.
Tab when: ‘Audio Restoration by Chace Productions Burbank’ has faded in.
Last end credit is: ‘Released by Sony Pictures Entertainment’, then sound continues very briefly.

The print I screened for Columbia in London many months ago was a dye-transfer print with SDDS / SRD.

It contained the overture, intermission and exit music.

It was probably the same print that played in Bradford in March.

It is 10 reels SR.D and a DTS time code on the print,the intermission is on reel 6, looks that the play-in and intermision have been cut off a few times.

.....of course, they have only restored it to the "sub-standard" film format of 35mm. Originally it was a huge success in the now obsolete 70mm and 6-track stereophonic magnetic sound format.
