20th January, 2019.
Right … it’s a definite: I saw the Claude Rains/Jame Whale version of The Invisible Man, last night.
It’s quite something to watch: especially when Griffin, the Invisible Man himself?
Unwraps the bandages.
The phrase ‘skull-like’ springs to mind.
And, from what I can tell?
The bit’s of the film where Rains, as the central character, unwraps the bandages from his head are done with a very early version of Colour separation overlay.
The same thing that powers the animation you’ll see at the start of today’s intro video.
One day … ?
I’ll get the hang of it!

There’s one sad bit of news I caught, last night.
No, nothing to do with Brexit, OR Prince Phillip.
Actually? It was a car bomb … outside a courthouse in what’s variously called Derry, or Londonderry.
No one was killed or injured, but neither has any group claimed responsibility.
But, having grown up in England during the Troubles?
I’d hate to see those Troubles restarted.
Especially if those who’ve done this, have done this in response to the Brexit negotiations, with all the talk of a Backstop*.
Here’s hoping.
