[Videolib] The Tales of Hoffman / Studio Canal
I have acquired a stupendous (!!!) original IB Technicolor 16mm print of this film, too good not to screen for the public. Criterion did a DVD which is now out of print, they say the rights are with Studio Canal but don't know who, or if anyone, distributes in the US. They thought maybe Rialto Pictures but it doesn't look like it's in their catalog. Anyone have a Studio Canal contact?

Re: [Videolib] The Tales of Hoffman / Studio Canal
They used to have a US rep named Stuart Lessel (?) in LA and I hate to burst your bubble or jump to conclusions but Studio Canal is almost surely one of those if you have to ask you can't afford it places. Their standard fee for venues to show a current film is 500 Euros per show according to several of my customers. They are also not likely to be friendly to the idea of 16mm print being licensed.

Re: [Videolib] The Tales of Hoffman / Studio Canal
I would strongly suspect they screened it from a very old life of print lease.

The leases were not transferable. The odds of Studio Canal catching you are pretty much nil but it would be an illegal show.

One long shot would be to contact the Scorsese office or um DENNIS and try to get in touch with Thelma Schoonmaker, Michael Powell's widow and Scorsese's long time editor.

Re: [Videolib] The Tales of Hoffman / Studio Canal
I am confused. Did your library itself buy a print with life of print lease? They have not been all that common for a long time. Most studio titles were sold for a limited number of years at which time they needed to be renewed. In general it is not likely that studio feature films had life of print leases, not sure about educational titles.

Re: [Videolib] The Tales of Hoffman / Studio Canal
Yes, Jessica, educational, documentary, animated, childrens and independently produced features are typically life of print, as acquired for public libraries. Studio feature length films, at least in my experience, such as Tales Of Hoffman would qualify, are almost without exception leased, usually 5 years. And you better hold on to that paper work (as well as the paperwork for life of print titles), or else you risk dereliction of duty. David, you never own something that you lease.

[Videolib] ALA Annual GALA Sponsorship Requested...
Hi Everyone, Just a reminder that we are still seeking vendor sponsorship for the ALA Annual 2012 VRT GALA in Anaheim. Sponsorship can come in the form of a financial contribution or donation of DVD titles for raffle prizes. *About the Gala at ALA Annual 2012 (Sunday, June 24 6:30-9:30)* Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel, Trillium Room C Drinks and hors d'oeuvres will be served along with a dynamic presentation from Mark Quigley, Manager of the Research and Study Center at the UCLA film and Television Archive and Stephen Davison, Head of the UCLA Digital Library Program. Both these leaders collaborated to create the UCLA silent animation preservation program. This program has produced a website which offers eleven animation films from the silent era, for viewing online or download along with the accompanying music files also available for download. The films cover a variety of silent animation productions, and are provided alongside authoritative technical and historical context. If interested in sponsorship of this event, please contact myself: spic0...@umn.edu We would like to thank Alexander Street Press for their contribution and Kino for donating titles. Please don't let not being present hinder you from supporting VRT in Anaheim!

Re: [Videolib] The Tales of Hoffman / Studio Canal
No rights holder is looking for 16mm prints, they have been throwing them out for years ( even if many did not make to the dumpster) I actually have a number of friends who are looking and actively collect them but alas rights are whole different issue. In this case you actually know who the rights holder is which is better than many. For the record if you actually end up dealing with Studio Canal or any major rights holder I would actually LIE about the format. Tell them you want rights to show the DVD, mentioning prints only upsets them and I am not kidding. It is barely concealed secret among venues that program prints that if the rights holder does not have a print and you can find one , just ask for for the exhibition rights for DVD. They are being paid for the rights to their film. On Fri, Jun 8, 2012 at 4:34 PM, Dave Dvorchak ddvorc...@provcomlib.orgwrote: Oh well.
