Peeping Tom (1960): Restored UK Master

[The Aluminum Falcon]

Project Info
Peeping Tom (1960) was a disappointing BD release with grain reduction, underexposure, and oversaturation. That being said, the UK HD master is still the best version available now and all relatively fixable. 

This preservation, relatively straight foward, just uses a 35mm grain plate and color-correction. The shadow details were relatively recoverable, and the saturation looks better taken down a notch.

Video

• UK BD - regrained with shadow details recovered and saturation brought down
  

Audio

• English 2.0 LPCM

Peeping Tom is now available. Unfortunately, I haven't gotten a chance to do proper screenshots, but, as described, the custom disc is a few notches brighter as well as less garishly saturated.

Zulu also to become available tonight.

Thanks for making this Falcon. I'm a fan of the whole Powell/Pressburger oeuvre having seen them all but never have gotten around to seeing this post breakup work. Given the talent and the notierary the film has, I have to say I'm excited to see it.

(BTW I moved this to released)
