I had an unexpected treat this week whilst in Atlanta at the historic Plaza Theatre. They held a screening of our favourite piece of cinema in a restored 4k format which looked sumptuous. I highly recommend you rewatch the movie with an audience rather than on your phone on a rainy trip on the 46 bus. The restored version revealed parts of the set that I forgot were ever there!
Afterwards I gave a Q&A session with moderator Aaron Strand which gave me th opportunity to drone on about things I barely remember from 35 + years ago. The most revealing part of the evening was talking with the 100% American audience and seeing how the jokes landed and how they related to a quintessentially English thespian dilemma.
