In celebration of the centenary of producer Albert R. ‘Cubby’ Broccoli, born in 1909, a season of classic James Bond films have been digitally restored and are returning to cinemas nationwide distributed by classic film specialists, Park Circus.
During June, restored versions of four classic James Bond films, Dr. No, From Russia With Love, Goldfinger and On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, will be screening on consecutive Sundays at over 60 cinemas around the country.
The four classic films will be screened via the UK Film Council’s Digital Screen Network, enabling audiences to enjoy the outstanding picture quality and improved sound offered by this technologically advanced format.
The digital release is Lottery funded through the UK Film Council’s Prints and Advertising Fund.
The Bond films in the Broccoli centenary season have been digitally restored frame by frame by Lowry Digital Images, the world’s leader in digital restoration and image enhancement.
The process involves taking moving pictures that show signs of age and wear, removing the fading, dirt, scratches and other defects that occur over time, and returning them to their original condition.
