Author Topic: Raging Bull (1980) John Hawkinson Film God Posts: 2273 From: Cambridge, MA, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 04-15-2009 05:27 PM                     Raging Bull (1980) 7 reels 1.85:1 Flat (1.66:1 safe) Dolby A Stereo / "Three-track Dolby Stereo" (L,C,R) Conventional silver-applicated soundtrack. Black and white, except for the start of R3. Eastman 5302 acetate (start of R3 is 5386 color) United Artists / MGM DFS depot Original prints were clearly not on 5386, as that didn't exist until the 1990s. Voiceover "three-track Dolby stereo" on leaders. The New York Times, Friday, Nov. 14, 1980, page C9: === Print-specific info DFS print #00001 (LA) is in fairly crummy shape, despite being tagged "Premiere." The beginning section R1 has been replaced with 2383 (2002 datecode), the rest is 1999-datecode acetate 5302 b/w, except for the head of R3 (color) that is 1991 (?) 5386. This print is extremely brittle and falling apart. It tears easily and has a lot of torn perfs. But the image quality is good. I was afraid to inspect it with a glove for fear of gloves catching on tears and exacerbating them, so it was inspected with bare hands. I would not want to run it from reels smaller than 5" diameter hubs. [ 04-17-2009, 09:22 PM: Message edited by: John Hawkinson ]  |  IP: Logged
