Patton
20th Century Fox
10 rolls (on cores)
2.2 : 1 Dimension 150 (compatible with standard 70mm)
DTS 6-track / Special Venue Format
Intermission card on end of R6
(Stop mandatory to change disks)

A little bit of lightness at the edges of the frames (a printer issue apparently) and an occasional small line perhaps on the neg or minor base-side mark but overall this is UMbelievably gorgeous. You will think you've died and gone to high resolution heaven. And a great, great movie, too.

We did note an issue with DTS offset changing at a couple points in the first part, in or after R4. No big deal as we caught this on the run-through. I expect this will be investigated and if it really is inherent to track (as opposed to some sort of freakiness in our DTS-6D w/Special Venue mod) then they'll simply fix and burn new disks so as HAL would say, I really wouldn't worry myself about it.

In case you're wondering, we screened it at Roger Ebert's 4th Annual "Overlooked" Film Festival. http://www.ebertfest.com

Editing this post to add that the show runs 171 minutes and there is a brief entre'acte on the beginning of R7. There is no overture nor a studio logo; R1 fades up on the American flag backdrop of the famous opening speech scene.
