Not sure if this is of interest to anyone, but Psycho is currently streaming on Netflix Canada in an older 1.33:1 master. Might be good for preserving a copy of it, if anyone can capture off of Netflix.

If someone can accomplish it, I’d be most interested in getting my hands on the end result!

“Older 1.33:1 master” meaning SD or is it already HD?

I’m not sure. Netflix doesn’t say it’s HD, and it looks like it’s in SD.

What country is it being streamed in? It isn’t streaming in my country.

Sorry, forgot to mention that, it’s streaming on Canadian Netflix.

An older 1.33:1 master of Psycho turned up very briefly on Australian Netflix in 2017. I captured it to replace a poor quality open matte copy I had from years earlier.

My capture is only 720p but I was surprised such a poor quality SD master made it onto Netflix. Feel free to PM me if you want a copy.

By the way, it’s great that now you can record movies and shows to watch them later. Since I work a lot and am rarely at home, I like it when you can buy a package of channels from your provider, given that you can watch missed interesting programs or videos in the recording. For example, at rooomba.tv, several of these packages give you the opportunity to choose your favorite channels and watch old shows.This is a great opportunity to watch your favorite shows on the weekend and completely relax with such a forehead.

Falcon did a 35mm scan of Psycho. I forget what the aspect ratio is. I haven’t watched it since I first got it.

I’d be interested to know what AR it is and if it’s complete. I just came across Rob’s Nostalgia Project, and I was hyped about it until I saw it’s actually missing a pretty significant plot point: the death of Arbogast. This is a bummer, because it’s in 1.33, which I really want (I have the SD version from the Legacy Collection and it’s really crummy).
