19.11.06 Union Films would like to apologise for tonight's showing of Fearless. It is very long and complicated story. The film first arrived on Tuesday in our delivery box, and then vanished on Thursday. It appears that our couriers had returned the film before it had been shown. After many phone calls we had another copy dispatched due to arrive on Saturday, but it was 'mis-directed'. So here we were Sunday afternoon, and plan B swung into action using the digital projector. We are sorry for the low quality, but full 35mm showings will return this Tuesday with My Super Ex-Girlfriend and Silent Hill.
