Our fifth episode of July 2025 is a very special one: cinematographer and colorist Devan Scott (and host of the podcast How Would Lubitsch Do It? , where Tim was a regular guest) joins Tim to discuss the new Arrow Video UHD releases of A Fistful of Dollars , For a Few Dollars More , and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly , on which Devan served as technical advisor as part of a team working to make sure that those films got their first properly-curated and visually restored home releases since the dawn of home media. And from there, they dive into a larger conversation about the nature of film restoration and preservation, the confounding things that happen to movies when they get transferred to home video, and whether Wong Kar-wai can ever be trusted with his own films again. If you're the sort of person who groans inside when you learn that a new Criterion Collection release was based on a L'Immagine Ritrovata restoration, this one is a must-listen.
