Focus on this -[ HSS ]-
Another example of an oft-ignored reminder found mainly on 35mm film prints from abroad. This time it's readable (well, sort of). The last time I encountered a similar message, someone reversed it.
The film with the leader message is an odd reel (first five minutes) of a 1971 Hong Kong martial arts film. (The film is faded but otherwise in great shape; as of this writing, I have yet to screen it.) I used my LED light pad and copystand to capture the images without cutting the film. Most of the image was sliderized in Photoshop. The grungy effect is a layer modified in Topaz Studio 2.
