 The following is a reference / historical listing of the 70-millimeter
engagements of “Young Sherlock Holmes” in the United States and Canada. These
were the best cinemas in which to experience this motion picture.“Young Sherlock Holmes” was among twenty-three confirmed first-run films released in 1985 with 70mm prints for selected engagements. The Amblin Entertainment production and Paramount release — directed by Barry Levinson and starring Nicholas Rowe, Alan Cox and Anthony Higgins — opened December 4th. Pre-release screenings included an invitational preview held November 25th and December 3rd at the National in Los Angeles. For the release of “Young Sherlock Holmes,” Paramount employed the services of Lucasfilm’s Theatre Alignment Program (TAP) to evaluate and approve the cinemas selected to book a 70mm print. The 70mm prints of “Young Sherlock Holmes” featured pillarboxed imagery (approximately 1.85:1) blown up from spherical 35mm and Six-Track Dolby Stereo (“A” encoded “baby boom” format). Seventy-millimeter trailers for Paramount’s “April Fool’s Day,” “Clue,” “Gung Ho,” “Pretty in Pink” and “Top Gun” circulated during the release of “Young Sherlock Holmes” and which the distributor recommended be screened with the presentation. Additional 70mm trailers from other studios circulated during this period as well. Which trailers, if any, seen during the “Young Sherlock Holmes” presentations varied by venue and screening. The duration of the engagements (measured in weeks) has been included in parenthesis following the applicable cinema name.

As well, the reverse may have been true in some cases whereas a booking began with a 35mm print because the lab was unable to complete the 70mm print order in time for an opening-day delivery or the exhibitor negotiated a mid-run switch to 70mm. In these cases, any 35mm portion of the engagement (or movement out of a branded auditorium) has been included in the duration figure.
