An idea came to mind earlier: have you considered "regraining" ? Aside from giving it more of an authentic classic aesthetic, it'd sort of alleviate a big issue with the 2004 Lowry masters which is the grain freezing they suffer from. Grain will stop moving and start moving in the background and it's sort of jarring.

That option was discussed and put to the side a few pages ago. Theoretically, it would be interesting to make the picture seem more "alive."

I haven't downloaded the workprint but the colors of the pictures posted look gorgeous to me. The movie's palette really has changed. Everything's very vivid but in a retro way, not a revisionist way. It's obvious you're working with a very reliable source, Harmy. Kudos to getting it and utilising it as a reference to its full potential in your work..
