cine film to DVD

Do you remember when you all sat around in the living room, while Dad struggled to erect the projector screen, and the way it would always turn slightly to the left no matter which position the tripod legs were in. Then came the threading of the film, a degree in electro-mechanical engineering was required. At last all was ready, the lights were turned off, the white light flickered on the screen, the first image appeared, out of focus but a quick fiddle with the lens and there is Granny in all her glory in 1963. Wonderful, then just as Granny is about to pick up her new Grandson the screen turns white, there is a clicking noise from the projector and Dad speaks in some foreign tongue.
