My thanks to both of you. I'm taking a look at both programs.
It appears that both programs require more speed and ram than I have on my current windows machine. :?:
So I'll wait until after I upgrade before making a decision.

Best editor for Windows
I've been using iMovie on a pre-Intel iMac for about 10 years now. About 5 years back the iMac suffered a major breakdown which was quite expensive to repair. I want to buy a new computer during the coming year and have decided that I cannot afford another Mac, so I'll be getting a Windows machine. ...

What's this called?
A messenger brings bad news. The recipient of the bad news beats the crap out of the messenger. The action then goes back to the point just after the guy got the messenger and we know that the beating was just in the character's mind.
Is there a term for this kind of sequence?

Re: Kubrick's first feature
The rights remain with the estate for 70 years after the death of the creator. Not from the creation of the piece. Actually, not true in the U.S. for works published between 1923 and 1963. Copyright protection lasted 28 years and could be renewed for an additional 67 years for a total of 95 years. ...

Re: Kubrick's first feature
One of the few times I wish I had cable! Interesting to hear that they are broadcasting it as I had heard that only a few film prints were around. I also wonder whether the estate approves. It was produced independently so the copyright may reside with the estate or possibly with Kubrick's investor...

Kubrick's first feature
I'm rather surprised, and pleased, to see on the TV Guide web site that Turner Classic Movies will show Fear and Desire tonight at 8:00 p.m. EST. This was Stanley Kubrick's first feature, filmed in the hills near Los Angeles El Mariachi style with a silent camera, dialog later dubbed, and minimal bu...

http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/movies/2011/09/02/2011-09-02_man_of_steel_set_photos_show_superman_costume_up_close.html Using a darker red and leaving the Superman logo off the cape in Superman Returns was bad enough. The revamped Wonder Woman costume was even worse. Thankfully the series ...

Re: Introducing kids to film...
A few years ago my grandson was vocalizing his Christmas wish list. One thing he wanted was a camera. Looking right at me he said "... and I mean a REAL camera, not one of those you have to put FILM in."

Re: Unreadable subtitles
Maybe the filmmaker wasn't responsible for the subtitles. It may have been the distributor who acquired the film for exhibition to their target country. I've seen quality subtitles done so it just boils down to who's doing it as quality does vary...just like audio dubbing of foreign material which ...
