2015 Criterion Restoration

  • in partnership with The Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences
  • "produced largely from original camera negative that was recently discovered after being damaged in a fire in London."[1]
  • "physical restoration at Cineteca Bologna in Italy"
  • "scanned at 4K and digitally restored at the Criterion Collection’s facility in New York, a process that took six months."
  • "“We were able to salvage 50- to 60-percent of the original camera negative for the first two films, although the fire had caused massive shrinkage and stabilization problems,” recalled Head Restoration Artist Phoebe Harmon"
