 Re, Mike Frank's point of June 28, 13.54 concerning the video projection
method. This may parallel the cinematic viewing situation assuming that
the projected video comes from a very good master copy. Otherwise, the
watching process is very difficult with explicit lines, fuzzy color, and
blurred images resulting in severe eyestrain. This effect is not just
confined to EP video versions. Some SP versions of Hitchcock's UNDER
CAPRICORN do not project very well. This problem may be eliminated if
the company concerned brings out digitally remastered images. But, in
most cases, it depends how good the actual video copy is in the first place.
The inferior ones would easily be seized upon by the traditionalists as
ammunition for the exclusive use of film.
