[REL] From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler (1973)

1973 version looks better than 1995 remake

I found Sally Prager's portrayal of Claudia delightful. The character is intelligent, curious, full of wonder, and caring toward her younger brother. Her independence and courage are admirable. I sympathized completely with "Mrs. Frankweiler's" attraction to this spunky young girl. Ingrid Bergman's appearance toward the end of this movie elevates the film to a new level; as ever, her acting is superb.

Maybe someone has this hidden away - looks good.

Thanks

Always nice to fill a request especially one that seems as rare as this. It would be great if billanben were still around to see this..........or is he? :think ........
I'm offering a choice on this........First of all the original exactly as I got it.......mp4 rip, poorly cropped with bad audio (excessive background hum). My thanks to the originator.

My re-encode in XviD avi format with cropping corrected & audio hopefully improved.

Neither of these are of particularly good overall quality, I'm guessing due to the limitations of the poor source material.

Enjoy!

Assuming you've got eMule configured properly you should find a complete source now. Bear in mind my upload speed is at crap-level until about midnight UK time. If you're identifiable in your eMule username I'll give you a friend slot to help.
I can think of better movies here you might want to download but that's another story............... :)
Oh.......& welcome to the forum!

Avi, 853x480 (though players notoriously say it's 720x480 :?), 3.89 GB
I haven't seen the versions above but measured by the pictures it should clearly be a quality upgrade (at 1920x1080 you still have a quite orderly picture)...

BTW: The year should be added - with such a strange name the topic of the thread looks like anything else but a movie ... ;)

I worked a bit on Warg's 4 GB file and used some filters... I am pretty pleased with the result.
As a smaller-file-alternative, I add this version:
