Leidsin juhuslikult intervjuu Deaf Crocodile asutajatega eelmise aasta märtsist, kus mainiti ka raskuski "Hukkunud Alpinisti" litsenseerimisega.

Josh – Now Dennis, let’s move to your side of things. I know you said you do the detective work and a lot of the negotiating and stuff. How long does that generally take?

Dennis – Well, we just signed a license on a really wonderful Estonian sci-fi kind of euro-thriller locked-room mystery called Dead Mountaineers’ Hotel from 1979-80. It took six years of patiently waiting and gently prodding to negotiate the license for us to restore. Every six months or so I would send an email to our contact in Estonia, and she would politely sort of say “We haven’t made up our minds, I need to talk to my colleagues, we’re hoping to get a grant on this end to restore it.” Then six months would go by and I’d send another email. This went on and on and finally Craig and I had kind of given up hope. Out of the blue I said “All right, I’ll give it one more chance” So I sent another email saying we’re still interested in Dead Mountaineer’s Hotel and amazingly she came back and said okay. We essentially wore them down, which I think is what happens with a number of these projects.

Üsna masendav suhtumine Tallinnfilmi poolelt minu arvates. Huvitav, kui paljudele pakkumistele nad veel on vastu hakanud?

Enne plaadile jõudmist linastub Berliini filmifestivali klassikaprogrammis:

That same year saw the production of Hukkunud Alpinisti hotell (Dead Mountaineer’s Hotel) by Estonian director Grigori Kromanov. A genre-busting film noir with elements of fantasy, it is based on a story by the legendary Soviet science-fiction writers Arkady and Boris Strugatsky. The restoration was done from a new 4K scan of 35 mm inter-positive material held by the Estonian National Archives.

Deaf Crocodile kinnitas enda sotsiaalmeedias, et plaat ilmub märtsikuu lõpus. Huvitaval kombel mainiti ka Eesti Filmiinstituuti. Huvitav kas see jõuab ka siin maal poodidesse...

Deaf Crocodile and the @estonianfilminstitute will be releasing the new 4K restoration of DEAD MOUNTAINEER'S HOTEL in late March for the first time ever on 4K UHD + Blu-ray. Pre-sales will begin for this special Deluxe Edition on Feb. 20th.

EFI enda pressiteates mainib küll Deaf Crocodile'i aga plaadist pole sõnagi.
