There was some movie magic, so no running version of promis. I did the
screen design myself for the TVI 950 based on pictures of screens running
the software that Christian and Zach provided.
They came last year and did a day of filming after a couple days of setting
up the set at my place. Supposedly I was the only person they could find
with a VAX 11/780 running that had somewhere they could film it (presumably
also in their budget).
They did pay me a bit for the location, but the whole experience was great.
I'm happy it finally came out so I can talk about it.

Awesome! I figured I'd know someone involved. Did
you actually get a
vintage version of PROMIS running? They talk about it being so
"revolutionary" in the documentary, but it just seems like any other
database?

My museum is in the credits, so it was probably me...
