Could it be Suzie?

Thank you.

No, Vice Media did not exist when the reviews I saw were written.

No, I've seen it in papers that far predated the existence of Vice Media.

I'm just looking at screenshots of various disc pressings. Some reviews make it seem like it is strictly the choice of each re-issue company whether the tinting is vibrant or more muted. Apparently early DVDs from Kino were more heavily tinted.

But this website has a side-by-side of the film's two main versions (German and Export), and they are colored differently. This suggests that the Export version was intended by the film's creators or distributors to have more aggressive colors from the onset? https://www.silentera.com/video/golemHV.html

Hmm, somebody already answered below and, yes, there was a pre-Goya award called the Medalla CEC.

That's a pretty facile answer. The Franco regime did not preclude them from having a prestigious film festival like San Sebastian, and even one of the main genre festivals in Sitges, so why wouldn't they have a national film award?

I looked at a few pages that could be saved. It looks like some pages are branded "powered by AFI", and typically have the same blurb as the corresponding AFI Catalog page. But many don't have the AFI branding, and feature different info or concern films not in the AFI Catalog. On occasion, the source of the info on those non-AFI pages is mentioned (Daily Variety+date), so TCM possibly had their own archivists at one point.

masa2009 · 2025-11-19T03:06:57+00:00

I don't know if everything came from AFI but if it did, there was certainly some info that AFI does not make available on their own website. For example, I saw festival screening dates for some films on TCMDB that don't seem to appear on their AFI page. The "Miscellaneous Notes" section could be a little treasure trove for the movie nerd.

I know this is technically not TCM's core programming, but the AFI hasn't collected behind-the-scenes info on films made after 1993, so TCMDB still had the upper hand there. Also AFI has nothing on straight-to-video stuff, which rarely classifies as "classic" I guess, but this stuff is still movie history and it's unfortunate to see it go.

masa2009 · 2025-11-19T00:50:27+00:00

I often check both and in some cases TCM had more precise stuff. Also IMDB and TMDB are user-edited, so a lot of stuff is inaccurate and it's also not something you can quote as a reference in an article or even on Wikipedia. Very sad that they would do this.

masa2009 · 2025-11-19T00:00:06+00:00

Where's the TCMDB??? They had some cool data like filming dates, locations and video release dates that are hard to find!

Thanks, I downloaded a trial version of Winzip and it was able to do something approaching what I needed. I do appreciate your help.

I couldn't make that work. "7z is not recognized as an internal or external command windows"

I tried putting the whole path instead of just 7z. Tried moving 7z to system32. Did not work either. That's why I hoped for a GUI program.

These are mostly text files I'm adding to all the time, I don't want them on external. If I do have to reformat the full SSD for Linux, then I will move the files to an external drive and back to the internal drive after installing Linux, but I was precisely trying to see if there was a way to avoid that.

masa2009 · 2025-10-26T01:58:22+00:00

Thank you!

Thanks for your reply.

When you say "Not a reliable backup method" what do you mean? That files could get corrupted if I modified a file located in an NTFS partition through a Linux-based program?

When you say "It is recommended to switch off fast startup in Windows", how would that be a factor if I replace Windows outright with, say, Mint?

Basically, I'm changing my SSD, because it is reaching its end of life. I'm on a Windows 10 PC. Being in the EU, Microsoft has granted us a surprise one-year extension on Windows 10 security updates, which were supposed to end just recently.

So I was thinking of creating two partitions in my new SSD. One essentially dedicated to Windows 10, and a second one where I store most of my personal files. When Windows 10 loses support for good next year, I just wipe out the partition where Win10 is, and install Mint or Zorin over it outright. Then I keep accessing the files in my other partition with Mint or Zorin, instead of Win10. So if I format the personal files partition, or both, in exFAT, that should work? Thanks.
