As always, hope it helps.

Although our print feature a lovely green overprint on the opening logo's. Alex  |  IP: Logged Alexander Smith Expert Film Handler Posts: 128 From: Walney Island, Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria.

I did think that the opening logos were set against a dark green background, rather than a black background. I didn't give this green/black issue much thought because I've seen it alot on film prints, some are very dark and some aren't. I think it's related to which lab produced the print, but I haven't noticed a correlation.

Only lasts a few feet, so I'm not too bothered. Unlike one of our copies of The Departed. Still waiting for the replacement reel. Only been waiting a week not. Alex  |  IP: Logged
