SUMMARY:Sag Harbor Cinema - Sag Harbor\, NY
DESCRIPTION:Created in the early 20th century by brothers Max and Dave Fleischer\, Fleischer Studios was a pioneer in the art and craft of animation and were responsible for creating and animating some of the most beloved characters in American animation including Betty Boop and Koko the Clown. The studio was also renowned for its animation of two extremely popular comic-strip characters: Popeye (originally created by Elzie Segar) and Superman (originally created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster). \nThe artists of Fleischer Studios were not only animators\, they were innovators as well. Known for their ground-breaking marriage of live action with animation\, their ingenious bouncing ball cartoons\, their gritty\, urban and often surreal landscapes\, their jazz cartoons featuring early film footage of the era’s popular artists including the very first film footage of Cab Calloway\, and many inventions including Max’s rotoscope and “set-back” process\, the influence of Fleischer Studios can be seen today in everything from music videos to karaoke to Japanese animé. \n  \nThe Max Fleischer Cartoons Restoration Project was launched in 2021 by Max Fleischer’s granddaughter\, Jane Fleischer Reid\, and producer Mauricio Alvarado. Together with The Film Foundation and other partners\, they have been working to restore and digitize the Fleischer Studios film library\, including cartoons featuring Betty Boop\, Koko the Clown\, and Popeye.  \nProgram Two: Sunday Nov. 9\, 12pm + Tuesday Nov. 11\, 11am \n\nIt’s the Cats\nKer Choo\nSomewhere in Dreamland\nPopeye Meets Sinbad\nSmall Fry\nBetty in Blunderland\nAn Elephant Never Forgets

SUMMARY:Sag Harbor Cinema - Sag Harbor\, NY
DESCRIPTION:Artists and Models\nDirected by Frank Tashlin (1955)\n\nDescribed by film critic Jim Hoberman as “the original Pop artist\,” Frank Tashlin brought to his features the screaming colors\, antinaturalistic tone\, and hyperbolics he had developed as an animator for Warner Bros.’ Looney Tunes cartoons. It is only fitting that the writer-director’s most enduring collaboration would be with Jerry Lewis\, the real life star whose acting so resembled a cartoon character. \nIn their first film together\, Eugene (Lewis) is a comic book-obsessed children’s author whose overactive imagination becomes source material for a struggling artist friend Rick (Dean Martin). Shirley MacLaine and Dorothy Malone are the upstairs neighbors in this ferocious satire of mid-1950s pop culture that turns every hot topic from its era into a joke: from the 1954 Senate subcommittee hearings (on the perils of comic books!)\, to the Cold War\, the space race\, and the publishing business. \n  \nAll 22 reels of the original VistaVision negative were scanned in 6K\, and unlike many VistaVision titles that can suffer from severe color fade\, this one showed only relatively minor fading. The primary picture challenge was stability: heavy flicker\, color breathing\, and scattered dirt and scratches. About 60 hours of digital clean-up\, plus a Phoenix pass on the opening reels\, balanced the image and brought out the rich color. Once stabilized\, the film’s vibrant Technicolor palette and Frank Tashlin’s playful visual style came through beautifully. For audio\, 35mm safety optical negatives (OSTN) were selected as the preferred elements\, and Perspecta tones were confirmed across the sets. The final restoration preserves the original Perspecta sound mix\, delivered alongside a standard mono track. The result is a lively\, colorful restoration that not only lets Martin\, Lewis\, and MacLaine shine as if the film were brand new\, but also restores the playful sound mix audiences would have heard in 1955. \nCourtesy of Paramount \n  \n\nShows with: \nBetty Boop’s Rise to Fame (Fleischer Studios Cartoons\, 1934\, 9 mins)
