On TCM tonight w /intro by Scorcese


Its the remasterd film. Looks good but less color saturation. Maybe it's my tv. Anyway I'm gonna enjoy the movie. I love everything about this movie, everything. I'm drolling at the breakfast Lermontov is having he Julian talks to him about having his music stolen. , I'm drooling at the glamour of Vicky and her "people" and I'm gonna hit every vintage store for a bag like Borenskaja is carring when she enters the Covent Garden for the first time.

The breakfast sequence looked amazing in the restored version. No idea where he got that food from as Britain still had rationing.

Its that man again!!

Great people like Lermontov (or like Powell & Pressburger) had ways and means to get things despite the rationing 
