Just a quick note to my fellow UK FT'ers:

If your print of the above has arrived with a seperate BBFC
censor tag, please be aware that it may claim to be head-out
but might not be (mine wasn't).

As always, hope it helps.

Alex.

Cheers for that,

Checked mine this afternoon, exactly the same. Although our print feature a lovely green overprint on the opening logo's.

Glad it helped someone. I did think that the opening logos
were set against a dark green background, rather than a black
background. I didn't give this green/black issue much
thought because I've seen it alot on film prints, some are
very dark and some aren't. I think it's related to which
lab produced the print, but I haven't noticed a correlation.

It's definitely a printing error. Only lasts a few feet, so I'm not too bothered. Unlike one of our copies of The Departed. Still waiting for the replacement reel. Only been waiting a week not.
