Restored 'Lawrence of Arabia' Clips Previewed at HPA Event

NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ericellenberg:

A preview of a lovingly restored 4K version of David Lean’s classic Lawrence of Arabia was shown Tuesday at the HPA Technology Retreat in Palm Springs. Grover Crisp, executive vp, asset management, film restoration and digital mastering for Sony Pictures Entertainment, screened the before-and-after clips, explaining that the “emulsion was cracked” and “the negative is badly scratched” on the original. The restoration is being accomplished at Colorworks on the Sony lot. The restored version of the film will be released on Blu-Ray later this year. A theatrical rerelease is also being planned.

Emphasis added. Let’s do that again.
