A Man of No Importance (1994), starring #AlbertFinney, 35mm 📽️ at the #IrishFilmInstitute the other week; in which, as a young man, I was extra in the pub scenes. Thirty years later I ran it as a projectionist still tasting those fake cigarettes I had to smoke. #ProjectionBooth

THE DEAD has never been released digitally or on Blu-ray. I think the long OOP DVD is cut due to some music rights. So thank god for our archive print (we actually have two). #ProjectionBooth

My few words from up high on Ireland's love affair with cinema-going. The things I've seen....mostly baldness and bums on seats. #ProjectionBooth @irishfilminstitute.bsky.social

I’m 25 years a projectionist, and consider myself lucky to be still standing in a booth. I like digital - so reliable. But I love film. And the new year is looking GREAT for celluloid 📽️ #IrishFilmInstitute clip: #WoodyAllen MANHATTAN 35mm film from a show in 2013. #ProjectionBooth
