Man on a mission to find and preserve the rarest and most obscure films ever made. Posts mostly film & TV related content.
Yep, I'm looking forward to the doc, should be good, I think i'm going to hold and wait till the doc is out before watching it haha.

Yep, as it usually happens the thrill to find it ends up being a lot more exciting than what you get by watching the actual film haha.

Huge day for Disney fans, UNCLE WALT, the 1964 cartoon short by then UCLA student Robert Swarthe and unseen since 1972 has leaked and can be seen on Youtube courtesy of Unckie NPC, although maybe not for long!

There probably is problem is where to find them! haha.

Sandra Harmon also died in 2016, finding recordings from the '70s or early '80s is very hard, but a 16mm print exists apparently, would depend on whoever holds the rights for it if they would be willing to work on a release. bsky.app/profile/mike...
The Library of Congress has a 16mm copyright print!

I don't have it but would love to see it, looks like not even Don Giller, sort of the unofficial Letterman archivist taped it :(

The 1979 David Letterman movie that's impossible to find.

Nope, French only, but they are all OCRed so you can just copy&paste a section you find interesting in any translation tool online and you should get a farily accurate translation.

Thanks a lot to Eric for the upgrade, attached on the link below you'll find HD copies of 10 of these UPA short films, encoded from a now OOP Columbia Classics 4K boxset.

The entire run of CAHIERS DU CINÉMA, 827 numbers, available for download ⤵️. Legendary work @brunolemon.bsky.social ! 🙏
Bom dia, começamos o ano com a coleção completa de absolutamente todas as edições da Cahiers du Cinéma. Foi um trabalho árduo de meses que não teria conseguido sem a ajuda de dois conhecidos, a quem agradeço imensamente.

Ah you're right, I thought the torrent was automatically added by IA but doesn't seem to be available for this collection, I guess uploader has to make it available, my bad.
January 3, 2026 at 7:02 AM
You can also find this collection in remux form on the internet archive, thanks to OP. Downloading from IA individually can be a pain as dl speeds there aren't great so I recommend downloading the torrent instead that's much faster.

Here's the list of all the shorts that are included, thanks a lot to Zaireeka @ KG for the DVDr upload. I remuxed each film individually (no re-encoding), took a couple hours but it was worth it to preserve them in highest quality. Some films also include audio commentaries.

Happy new year everyone! 🥳
Enjoy this collection of 38 theatrical animated short films released between 1948 to 1959 by studio UPA, including all the ones on the clip below and many others. From a long OOP DVD released by TCM/Columbia in 2014.

If you have a list of the ones you're missing feel free to post it or send it to me via DM and I'll check if I can find them, I probably have all or most of them.
December 31, 2025 at 7:46 AM
Mm yeah I think it never happened and I forgot what was on Drive #1 so I'll have to reupload everything again, but if you're looking for something in particular I can look into it.
December 30, 2025 at 7:01 AM
If there's something that I posted on my previous account that you didn't get to download for whatever reason just let me know (comment here or send me a DM) and I'll add it on the next batch of reuploads. Thanks! :)
