In a cramped 1940s projection booth, an older projectionist inspects a strip of celluloid held up against the harsh beam of a carbon-arc lamp. Shot on Kodak Super-XX panchromatic film with a Bausch & Lomb Baltar lens, the frame exhibits deep chiaroscuro shadows, velvety silver tones, and the coarse grain and fine vertical scratches of a vintage nitrate print.
