   Just back from the showing and the print (and sound) were immaculate. I'm   
   wondering if it was a digital projection, although I don't know at this   
   particular cinema.   
      
   It was The Final Cut, and it was simply amazing to sit back and soak it up   
   on the big screen. Thanks to the projectionist who wasn't mean with the   
   volume as well.
