Another Bond film festival at Prince Charles Cinema in London

Thanks to Park Circus Films, The Prince Charles Cinema in London has managed to secure another spectacular 007 season in 2016 with 4K screenings of every James Bond film to date. (Seven of them premiered in the new 4K format at our James Bond festival in Stockholm.)

In 2015, The Prince Charles Cinema screened EVERY Bond film from Dr. No (1962) to Skyfall (2012), in what was easily their most epic & ambitious season ever! With the release of Spectre in late 2015, they knew they would have to one up themselves. Starting in January 2016, they will once again screen each and every Bond film, including Spectre!

"As well as enhancing new films, computers have worked wonders in the preservation of archive movies. In September 2014, Anders Frejdh invited me to a Bond event in Sweden where I was in the audience for a 4K screening of Octopussy. I sat there totally mesmerised - the digital remaster was pristine, and it was like looking at the first print from the original negative."
– John Glen (quote from his updated biography For My Eyes Only published by Signum Books)
