    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ - Titanic -- in 4k UHD

    Yes, of course, but I feel that those who don't like the revisionism that has been applied also have the right to express their opinions, specially in a forum devoted to films in Blu-ray and UHD.

    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ - Titanic -- in 4k UHD

    I agree with you, but bear in mind "TITANIC" wasn't shot only on EXR 5245 (50 ASA) stock, which was balanced for daylight and had very low sensitivity (and thus, very fine grain). 5245 was used for the daylight outdoor scenes. 7245 was the same stock in 16mm, and it wasn't used on this film...

    I've just seen some screencaps from "TRUE LIES" and all the detail is gone. Jamie Lee Curtis has received half of "The Irishman" face lifting process for some reason.

    The face replacement was pretty obvious in the original 35mm prints, IMHO.

    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ - Titanic -- in 4k UHD

    I've always regarded "Titanic" as one of the sharpest 35mm spherical films I've ever seen at the theater. The daylight scenes shot on 50 ASA stock were astonishing, particularly the sunset scenes on the deck between Kate Winslet and Leonardo Di Caprio. It was a great optical blow-up from Super...
