When expert piano critics (who in some cases had panned the same recordings when first released!) praised "Hatto's" recordings to the skies, they sold like hot cakes - I worked at one of the key outlets for them at the time and we couldn't get stock quickly enough, until of course the hoax was exposed.

I thought One Touch of Venus was shown fairly regularly by the BBC but, as with some of the Laughton films, it may be a good few years since the last broadcast.Ĭlassical music fans - and anyone interested in the legal, ethical and technical aspects of recorded media generally - may be interested in Victoria Wood's new drama Loving Miss Hatto (BBC1, Dec 23, 8.30pm) about the elaborate hoax of five years ago, in which previously released recordings by distinguished pianists were passed off - sometimes with digital tweaking - as being new ones made by the elderly and almost unknown Joyce Hatto. It will be interesting to see whether the BBC has the courage to show Lady and the Tramp in 2.55:1 on prime time Christmas Eve! They have made encouraging moves to OARs recently but some Scope films are still being transmitted in 16:9 and even 4:3! I still remember that wonderful Jean Harlow season that Channel 4 did back in the late 90s. I haven't got my Christmas edition of the listings yet but I suppose that means my hopes that the "Screen Goddesses" season would feature a tribute to Delphine Seyrig and a screening of Jeanne Dielman are dashed in favour of the more familiar image of Elizabeth Taylor riding that giant throne again? Presumably they feel that salacious details of the actress and juicy behind the scenes stories beat out actually showing the material she is famous for first-hand? Which if I'm being uncharitable is I guess a similar reasoning behind the 'behind the scenes of The Birds' film, with the film itself being shown as an addendum? But I'm amazed they did apparently commission a new documentary on Bow. Jonathan S wrote:The Screen Goddesses strand is in fact very half-hearted as far as films are concerned, due to the BBC's reluctance to spend any money on licensing older films they don't already have rights to. Channel 4 wouldn't do it nowadays - wonder if Film 4 or More 4 would?ow.Īs for Clara Bow, the recent restoration of Wings woulld have been good.

I doubt most of the key titles are currently licensed for TV - and will all be 80-85 years old and almost all in black and white.

Since 2014 is the eightieth anniversary of the Production Code Administration, I was hoping that someone might run a Pre-Code season but from the sounds of it that's a forlorn hope.

The Screen Goddesses strand is in fact very half-hearted as far as films are concerned, due to the BBC's reluctance to spend any money on licensing older films they don't already have rights to. I don't think the Photoplay documentary about her has ever been transmitted here either, though the Biography episode I once caught on a cable channel appeared to use chunks from it. Channel 4 didn't even bother to show the Photoplay restoration of that film, though apparently they funded it, judging from their credit on the video edition. Jonathan S wrote:No, I'd have fallen off my chair if the BBC had scheduled a Clara Bow film! In fact the only one of hers I recall ever being broadcast on UK TV (in the last 40 years at least) was a BBC2 screening of the Killiam print of It back in 1982. I presume that someone would have to submit them to the BBFC though? If it's not too much to ask, I'd like a chance to see Cox's three features from the 1970s, which never had a UK cinema release nor as far as I know any TV showings. I haven't seen Vaslav Nijinsky at all and none of the other six above since 1990. Although some of the above had VHS releases, the only UK Paul Cox DVD to date was a Prism budget release of Molokai: The Story of Father Damien which is now OOP. This is good news for me, as apart from Innocence in 2001, Cox hasn't had a UK cinema release since Golden Braid in 1990, though I saw at least two ( Island and The Nun and the Bandit) at London Film Festival screenings. The films are Cactus, The Diaries of Vaslav Nijinsky, Golden Braid, Innocence, Vincent: The Life and Death of Vincent Van Gogh, Man of Flowers and My First Wife. This is available in the UK and Ireland only. £2 each, or £1.70 for Curzon members such as myself. I'm not sure if this is the right thread for this, but.Ĭurzon on Demand are currently showcasing Paul Cox, with seven of his features available for streaming.
