AN OPEN LETTER TO AUSTRALIAN FILM COLLECTORS



       As the curator of the forthcoming Sydney Cinematech, I am sending out an open
       call to collectors to have their films presented at the new season of cinematech
       beginning August at the Chauvel Cinema in Sydney.

       The Chauvel is reopening after its closure last year and will present an exciting
       line-up of new release arthouse films, film festivals and other special events, as
       well as a twice-weekly cinematech program.

       I am writing here to cast a net for interesting films on 16mm and 35mm in the
       hands of Australian collectors that they may wish to screen at the cinematech.
       The idea behind the cinematech is to screen films that cannot be seen elsewhere
       from all eras, all genres and all nations - from home movies to Hollywood
       classics.
       So if anyone is interested please send me a message at
                            brettgarten@iprimus.com.au
                             or Phone Mobile 0433 436 787
       and we can talk some more.

       If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask. Similarly, if you have any
       suggestions you think may be helpful, they too would be greatly appreciated.
       Thanks for your time, and hope to hear from you soon.


       Regards,
       Brett Garten



       PS: I am also interested in purchasing old ads and am willing to pay up to $100
       per 2000ft on 16mm and/or 35mm

       PPS: If you want to be kept updated about cinematech, please send me an email
       and I will put you on my mailing list.
