There used to be an old thread here about fathom events and such coming up, but I couldn't find it. I'm hoping to go to the 1925 "Ben Hur" remix by Stewart Copeland (of the Police!) this month, maybe it's on tour and has/will go near your town? I'll post after what I thought of it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmpgGuBqtcg -Forewarning, he did cut about an hour of it, from 2.5 hrs to 1.5, while remastering it and creating his score. I saw some of the original on TCM last year and really liked it. Bonus factoid: the Heston 'Ben Hur' version just copied the chariot race choreography from the 1925 version since it was so good already. Here's the link if curious, there's even a 65 dollar version where you get to do or watch some kind of interview with Copeland, it's probably lame though. http://www.stgpresents.org/paramoun...f-the-christ-em Newspaper article with some quotes from Copeland about it too: http://www.seattletimes.com/entertainment/movies/drummer-stewart-copeland-pounds-out-new-score-for-1925-ben-hur-in-silent-movie-mondays/ got any sevens fucked around with this message at 08:16 on Feb 12, 2016 |

^ It was awesome, both the soundtrack and the movie. I hope Copeland releases a dvd of it. Here's something else touring the country: Kurosawa's Ran! 4k restoration!!! http://www.rialtopictures.com/ran.html

drat, this was gorgeous on the big screen. Just saw it today at the uptown theater, which even sells beer and wine! First time I'd been in a theater that does that. The movie was really good too, even if the plot is a bit confusing on the first watch, the visuals are the main treat.
