\"\"<\/a>It’s Thursday, and I’m still recovering from filming Tuesday night until nearly 8am and being awake for more than 20 hours. Feels like jet lag (and that I should be in Japan right now), except I never left the city. So very, very strange.<\/p>\n

The next set of reviews will come out in odd clumps. The following CD reviews would’ve been uploaded Wednesday had my brain not been throbbing. One more filming all-nighter, and I’ll be into the editing. Expect a teaser trailer by Oct. 20, just in time for International Independent Video Store Day<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Just uploaded are reviews for Cliff Martinez’ Arbitrage<\/a><\/strong> [M<\/a>] via Milan, and BSX Records’ \u00a0solid re-recording of Vangelis’ \u00a0Blade Runner<\/a><\/strong> [M<\/a>] score, featuring a balance of familiar and hard-to-find tracks.<\/p>\n

Quick news bits: the new Complete Mr. Lucky<\/strong> TV series DVD set from Timeless Media Group includes a bonus CD of Henry Mancini’s music. No info on exactly what’s on it, in terms of whether it offers unreleased material or is a straight compilation of the Mr. Lucky<\/strong> and Mr. Lucky Goes Latin<\/strong> LPs.<\/p>\n

Also: DVD Savant recently posted a blurb about a Cinerama screening that featured surviving 3-panel versions of The Wonderful World of the Brothers Grimm<\/strong> (1962), and Search for Paradise<\/strong> (1957). Interesting is last graph on the page (see link<\/a>) that details the various guests present during the screenings, as well as little technical hang-ups during the screenings.<\/p>\n

Big surprise was the appearance of something called \u00a0a “breakdown reel.” \u00a0Snipped from DVD Savant is the following:<\/p>\n

After the movie they ran the film’s “breakdown reel”, a special reel prepared for showing in the event of technical difficulties to give the projectionists time to solve the problem. The breakdown reel for <\/em>Search for Paradise<\/em> featured Lowell Thomas interviewing the film’s composer, Dimitri Tiomkin. Tiomkin’s widow was present for the screening. (She was only introduced as “a member of the Tiomkin family”; Craig Reardon tipped me off during the intermission that she was his widow.)<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n

Pity there’s no extant Cinerama cinema in Canada. The few we had<\/a> were either murdered by developers or converted into other kinds of venues.<\/p>\n

Coming next: reviews of Detropia (2012) <\/strong>and Requiem for Detroit?<\/strong> (2010), both currently screening at The Bloor, plus a quick review of Packaged Goods: The Evolution of the Music Video<\/strong> which screened Wednesday night at the TIFF Bell Lightbox.<\/p>\n
