It seems like every month, there's an exciting new 4K re-release or a newly restored rediscovery that's reaching audiences for the first time.

The search is on for a surviving version of 'Sweet Inniscarra', the first all-talking film made in Ireland, which influenced later blockbusters.

"It felt like a good courtroom drama to me. I didn't know it was going to be a lot more than that at the time," said "The Social Network" screenwriter Aaron Sorkin, expressing his surprise at the film's depth and impact. His adaptation of Ben Mezrich's book showcased the complex creation of Facebook and its societal ripple effects, elevating it beyond a typical legal narrative.
