Hi mr in70mm!
I'm a 22 year old film enthusiast from melbourne, australia. i've been obsessed with film for as long as i can remember and i just wanted to let you know just how much i appreciate a resource like your site. Having to trounce my way through library books, online resources, dvd special features & commentaries etc. in search of really solid information especially about 70mm is a hard slog but your site is a complete revelation. I can't describe how impressed i am! i could spend hours on your site each day.
Again...INCREDIBLY appreciative of this great resource and all of you and your team's work! i look forward to trying to hunt down some of the cinemas listed on your site.
warmest regards,
Michael John Haydon, Melbourne, Australia |

I continue to be impressed by the dedication you have to the continuing wellbeing of 70mm. I would like you to have met my colleague and friend, the late Robert Gottschalk, founder and driving force of Panavision. He was of the unshakeable opinion that picture quality, real picture QUALITY, depended on a big piece of negative, the bigger the better.
All good wishes, Sir Sydney Samuelson |

Dear Sir
I have recently come across your wonderful website and I wish to compliment you on it's content, well done. Attached is a photo of my original 1960 UK "The Alamo" In Todd-AO (1960) Quad Poster, it is quite rare as there were not a lot printed with the Todd-AO symbol on it. Anyway I thought you might like a copy for your website? Please keep up the wonderful work.

Have just spent another two hours reading through yet again parts of your wonderful web site. I don't know how you manage to do it, but I for one am certainly glad you do.
Every time I look at the site I find myself immersed in fond memories of Wide Screen as I remember it from it's glory days of the 50's,and 60's and to have someone like yourself capable of collating and bringing together so much information is fantastic.
The site just seems to get better and better.

Dear Thomas, was there forgotten the 70mm festival for the American Cinematheque?
By the way, for my opinion there is too much public relation for the Schauburg Cinema on your website, including no commented screenings of 35mm prints (as BEN-Hur) or German dubbed prints (DIE HARD, ABYSS, ALIENS and so on). The advertising spaces in favour of Mr. Born are exaggerated, I think, and his "historic transfigurations" of the wide screen history in many internet forums and discussions are a real torture for a couple of experts.
Nowadays an important share of his program is carried on HD(TV)-Screenings via DLP beamer - altogether "harmonious" living side on side, as Mr. Born mentioned.
After many years I regret to notice, that this man is not fully serious - a very fickle and changeable business man with nostalgic weakness. The historic truth is another thing, I believe. I would be unhappy, as soon as the Thomas Hauerslev website is changing into a Herbert Born website.
The other, more interesting Festivals (American Cinematheque, Norsk Filminstitut and the Czheck festival) come off to shortly for my taste at the moment.
Kindest regards Jean-Pierre, Berlin, Germany |

Hi there dear Thomas,
in the beginning many many compliments and thanks for your fabulous work with the website and for your passion about the 70mm.
I would like to make you a question please: have you ever been in italy seeing the Arcadia multiplex in Melzo ?
Well, if the answer is yes, you just know what i am talking about !!!!
If the answer is no, i'd like to invite you to spend your next holiday there, that's the real seventh wonder of the world.
I'm a fanatical about 70mm and large format, and I will take this few seconds to say that you will never and repeat never say a cinema like that all over the world.
Try to believe.
If you need more information I will be pleased to send them to you.
Bye Bye and many compliments again.

Hi Thomas
Found your website while surfing on Google . Wow ! congratulations on your fascinating work. I am retired now , but worked on the DP70's at the Regent Theatre, Wollongong Australia. The theatre has now closed but I believe the machines are still there . From what I hear they are hoping to have the theatre heritage listed . In the early 70s I was the envy of all the projectionists on the south coast of New South Wales, as we were the only theatre to be running 70mm !
I have a few photos if they are of any interest to you .
Cheers Dave Graham |

Tonight, I had the very great surprise to see the DP70 brochures! I immediately downloaded the pages of this documentation. Of course, I regret I can't thank you directly, face to face with a good drink, but be sure I would enjoy to guide you and/or help you if you want to come again in Paris or around here.

I am delighted to find your website, with its encyclopaedic discussion of the history and technical features of this legendary projector. As a youngster growing up in 1950's NYC, I had the benefit of viewing films at nearly every DP70 installation. I can attest to the truly magnificent images this projector provided for the top run films of that era, including "Ben Hur", "Oklahoma!", "Porgy and Bess", and "Lawrence of Arabia".
Aside from IMAX, the conventional movie multiplex "experience" of today is simply pathetic, digital surround sound notwithstanding. The pitiful remant of a screen, devoid of curvature, appropriate size or even a dignified curtain makes the theatre going experience practically irrelevant. At least in my own home theatre, we properly dim the lights as the film begins, especially in the old "roadshow" spectacles that have "overtures" - e.g. "Ben Hur" and "Lawrence".
I am really glad to learn that Bob Harris has two DP70's to view the marvellous results of his restoration efforts.
Keep up the fine work. Thanks again. Jonathan Kleefield |

Sir,
I just had to tell you that as a schoolboy I saw TIC as the London Casino in 1955 never realising that six years later I would work for Cinerama as a projectionist at the London Coliseum and Royalty Theatres and also relieved at the Casino. I left Cinerama and went out of the industry in 1963/4. However the one big memory that I have always carried with me is the Cinerama flight in This is Cinerama down the Grand Canyon. It has always been my life ambition to actually see the Grand Canyon for myself.
I was lucky to be present at the first showing at Bradford and meeting John Harvey, John Swadkins and Willem along with others from all over the world, including other ex Cinerama projectionists. After seeing TIC again after all those years my dream of seeing Grand Canyon for myself became even more pressing.
Finally after have had to cancel 3 arranged trips to America following a heart attack and heart bypass, a family illness and death and on the third occasion Sept. 11th 'Twin Towers' two days before my flight out from the UK. I have made it this month and flew over and stayed at the Canyon. The 47 year wait was well worth it. I for one will never forget it or forget that it was Cinerama that was responsible for that lifetime dream.
Keep up the good work with the web site, its a great site

From an ex London Cinerama projectionist (Coliseum and Royalty plus a couple of days at the Casino). I would just like to say how much I am enjoying wading through everything that you have listed in The 70mm Newsletter-table of contents.
I certainly never thought 40 years ago that I would enjoy reading about Cinerama as much as I am. If only it was possible to turn the clock back to then, perhaps we might still have more screens capable of showing 3 strip.
When I attended the opening in Bradford of Cinerama and met all the people that had come from all over the world just to be part of the rebirth of Cinerama I had many a tear in my eyes. Now reading the items on your site is yet again having the same effect on me. Even after all these years I can still remember most of the films quite clearly and recall where a realignment of the 'gigolos' was called for.
Keep up the good work and perhaps I might even be lucky enough to meet you at Bradford if I can make it next year.

The W/S weekend web pages are superb and you are to be congratulated. Well done. I have enjoyed reading back through the years. We have been fortunate to have seen so many historical films presented correctly. I am looking forward to the weekend which has some good films, in particular Spartacus and the King and I now that they have the DP70 which should keep the focus sharp on the curve.

For someone like me who grew up in Hollywood in the heyday of 70mm and Cinerama, your website is an absolute delight. Thanks for your fine work.
I can tell you that the finest cinema I've experienced, by far, with the best 70mm projection, was the old Carthay Circle in Los Angeles, which tragically was demolished in the late 1960s. Nothing else I've seen could touch it, even Grauman's Chinese in its prime.

I was sorry to hear of the discontinuance of ...In 70mm in printed form.
It was a terrific publication, I will really miss it, but then Kodak may also be abandoning their printed edition of Cinema Notes so I guess this is the future!
Keep up the good work, I will continue to support ..in 70mm.
Best regards Brian Guckian, Dublin, Ireland |

Dear Thomas
You have done an outstanding job with publishing "..in 70mm" and I congratulate you on having continued to produce such great material for as long as you did. Most people that put together newsletters or small magazines tend to get "burned out" and give up in about 1½ to 3 years. The fact that you continued for so long shows how strongly you are interested in the subject of 70mm.
I have been visiting and will continue to visit your excellent web site. I hope you will continue to add to the great things that are already there.
Thanks again for all you have done.

Thomas,
I was sorry to read of your decision to stop producing the printed version of ..in 70mm. However I can understand that it must take some time to produce each edition and I can only thank you for all your efforts.
I saw Bill Lawrence at Pictureville when I went to see "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" and was glad to hear that the documenting of the history of 70mm will be continued. In my view this was a very important part of ..in 70mm which should be continued before the first hand knowledge is lost for ever. In particular documenting the films produced in the former Eastern Bloc countries has been generally poorly covered elsewhere. I hope that the website can continue this work.
Is it possible to send out a message when the Now Showing page of the website has been updated? It was only by accident that I found out about " Who Framed Roger Rabbit" and the Pictureville film listing never included it.
Best wishes, Andrew King |

Hi Thomas,
Sorry to hear about the demise of "...in 70mm." It's frustrating to see the film industry somewhat embrace digital cinema and large format IMAX/Giant Screen instead of 5-perf 65mm/70mm. Where's the logic? Now, if the industry wised up and embraced Super Dimension-70, I think that would be wonderful. Then, "...in 70mm" could enter a new age of 65mm movies!
Best regards, Bill Kallay |

I'm so sorry do decided to stop to publish it, but I understand you. No one seems to believe in 70mm but Arcadia, and it's really a pity that the moment we decided to move to the Large Format you closed the magazine that taught me a lot about 70mm and its history.

Hi Thomas,
I think it is a great idea to put the magazine articles on the web instead of posting out printed copies. This is the way a lot of publications will go.
David Coles also thinks that you are doing the right thing. Putting the magazine on the web will give more people a chance to learn about 70mm (especially the younger generation).

Hi Thomas,
Obviously I would like to have seen the magazine continue but I completely understand your decision given the fact that even 70mm blowups seem to be very rare these days. Many, many thanks for the countless hours you must have put into producing the newsletter over the past seven years, it was very much appreciated. I'll continue to check the website regularly.
Best regards, Allan Young |

Dear Thomas,
A pleasure to hear from you. Your work, in documenting Mr. Todd's vision, is worthy of doctorial awards. I will answer any technical questions you have. However, I can not add anything that you have not covered.
The Todd-AO process, especially the films photographed with the first bug-eye lens and 30 fps, are the best presentations, I have put on a screen. The DP70 is the finest moving picture machine ever built. It has never been equaled, and I doubt it ever will.
Keep up the good work. Cinema will never be the same as when Mike Todd was with us.
Regards, John D. Carver, USA |
