FROM SECOND SIGHT
We’ve had a few queries regarding the master we are using for MEAN STREETS. We co-funded the new 4K restoration with Criterion and therefore are both using the same master. The restoration was closely supervised by Martin Scorsese and Thelma Schoonmaker who used Scorsese’s own personal print as reference for the colour grading. This may differ from previous releases which did not have his involvement and were not accurate to the correct look of the film. An additional print held at The Academy was also viewed and closely matched his reference print. Scorsese worked with colourist Yvan Lucas on this new version to finally have MEAN STREETS look the way he intended on Blu-ray.
