Screening in 70mm
A note on the condition of the 70mm print:
While the color is bright, splices are few and the sound is good, note that there is a thin but consistent green emulsion scratch running vertically in the center of the image throughout the film.
Instead of switching to DCP, we have decided to stick with this print as it was struck for the original release 37 years ago and is the only extant 70mm print.
After building an empire with bootleg alcohol, legendary crime boss Al Capone (Robert De Niro) rules Chicago with an iron fist. Though Prohibition agent Eliot Ness (Kevin Costner) attempts to take Capone down, even his best efforts fail due to widespread corruption within the Windy City's police force. Recruiting an elite group of lawmen who won't be swayed by bribes or fear, including Irish-American cop Jimmy Malone (Sean Connery), Ness renews his determination to bring Capone to justice.
