Awesome. Had thought this would never happen. You can tell how beautifully shot this was even in the boots so it will be amazing on blu.Last edited by Randy G; 02-05-2016, 03:58 AM.

Originally posted by Paul L View PostOh, yes I'm very excited about this. I emailed the BFI a couple of years ago when SYMPTOMS was screened via a 35mm print in Brussels, and received a fairly positive response (I think I posted it here) which suggested that even if the leads were positive, it may of course take several years for the film to be released, if at all. This has come round much sooner than I could have hoped.
I too have been dying to see that documentary ever since I got wind of it. I have a made for television doc on Larraz that's pretty god albeit way too brief. This is shaping up to be a contender for release of the year for me.
The reason I mentioned DEVIATION, WHIRLPOOL, and SCREAM AND DIE here is that, to me at least, they have certain similarities in tone and twisted atmosphere as SYMPTOMS. WHIRLPOOL in particular I'm dying to see in a gorgeous restoration. That time-coded eyesore is a real drag. That film is right up there with SYMPTOMS for me, one of his major works. That it's scored with one of Cipriani's finest soundtracks is the cherry on top.I don't go to church. Kneeling bags my nylons.

I'd love to see Whirlpool get restored too, its a big favorite of mine. Such a nasty, seedy film but with real artistry behind it.
