Re: [Frameworks] Modern 16mm features, distributed on film

John, if by "mainstream" you mean new release major studio films available for rent on 16mm you could still get about everything in the 90s but things fell off very rapidly after 2000, and by 2006 it was really the end of the road. The last one to be released on 16mm as best as I can tell was "Cars" the animated Disney feature from 2006.Here is the last list of 16mm titles ever available from Swank Motion Pictures: https://web.archive.org/web/20071109223539/http://www.swank.com/college/16mmrelease.html  It's worth noting that in the 90s besides Swank and Criterion (which represented the big studios) a lot of indy distributors also offered their films in 16mm. Some included October Films, Samuel Goldwyn, New Yorker, etc. I've often wondered what happened to all those prints. --Ed-Original Message-

I guess I'm biased in my thinking that a 16mm print nowadays is an indulgence for the creator and few mainstream filmmakers are going to convince their distributor to pick up the bill for the print.

The Zone of the Total Eclipse (2006) by Mika Taanila uses positive and negative 
footage of an eclipse in a double projection to an interesting effect.
