She's one of my favorite models and I have looking everywhere for anything on her, including photographs and videos. I believe I stumbled on something big. I found an 8mm print of her on film. It is a vintage stag film called "Rosy Dream" and it is a complete print of the film. In it, she tends a garden in the nude and I have only seen a short clip of it in standard quality. This was a listing on Ebay going for $10. I looked at the given photos of the film stock and instantly thought, "Holy crap! It's Becky McFarlane!" I instinctively bought it.

Here's the problem: I have never really dabbled in 8mm film, so I do not have the equipment needed to make a proper digital transfer of this film. If anybody on this thread can help me or point me in the right direction on what to buy in order to translate this film to a video file, please let me know. Here's the preview images below:



The reel is 3" thick, which means that there is 50' of film. That's a decent amount of footage.

I recently got one of the Becky McFarlane film in my collection digitally transferred into isolated still frames. I have assembled a quick little extract of a few shots from the film and have posted the video on my website. You can see the results here:

I am very pleased with the results so far and cannot wait to get the film fully assembled. What's more is that, since I have the individual frame, I can digitally restore the film's deterioration when I have the time. We can finally preserve the work of this incredibly gorgeous lady.
