Author Topic: Charlie Edward Jurich Master Film Handler Posts: 305 From: Las Vegas USA Registered: Jul 2003 posted 09-19-2003 05:46 PM                     I put together a print of "Charlie", a film about Charlie Chaplin for a film festival showing. It appears to have been made from a video. The opening logo even says Warner Video. The content of Chaplin clips is at best poor quality. Interview footage varies from OK to good. Most of it looks like video with even some line jitter on the titles in the Chaplin clips. One of the last reel changes is done in mid sentence.  |  IP: Logged Aaron Sisemore Flaming Ribs beat Reeses Peanut Butter Cups any day!

We screened a DV copy of it at the Wine Country Film Festival last month. -Aaron  |  IP: Logged Steve Kraus Film God Posts: 4094 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 09-20-2003 10:53 AM                    Something like that is incredible unfortunate because it makes people believe that that is what the old movies looked like.  |  IP: Logged Erick Akers Arse Kicker Posts: 201 From: Dallas, TX, USA Registered: May 2001 posted 09-22-2003 09:38 AM                     Isn't that what they want?
