Are HKL releasing Project A later this year?

I can't get into the site at the moment to check their future releases. Does anyone know? :)

Not 100% but I think I saw it the other day.

Off Topic, I'm going to watch the excellent Dragon's Forever tonight that arrived coutesy of DDDHouse bargin for £5.30 !!

Unfortunately the few brief bits of Project A that was shown on the HKL restoration featurette didn't look to promising as it seemed to suffer from major Brightness fluctuations one of the flaws that HKL can not fix it is very evident sadly on Way of the dragon and the Postman fights back.

This is not to say that the whole movie will suffer but there is a pretty big chance for that as Police Story suffers from Minor to heavy brightness fluctuations most noticably when viewed on a monitor and it's made after Project A and they where both probably shot on the same kind of film stock so there is a chance that Project A will have the same low quality.

If there is one thing that really annoys me is extensive brightness fluctuations through a whole movie like in Way of the Dragon HKL can't do anything about because of budget restrictions or that their restoration equipment simply can't handle the problem.

The chance of ever seeing a good quality version of Project A seems very far away there are some problems that HKL can't fix sadly that bigger companies Lowry Digital images can the ones who did the restoration on North By Northwest and Citizen Kane all came out with simply stunning results and they all suffered from the dreaded brightness fluctuations and extensive print damage.
