Lawrence, Head of Cinema
Following the highly
successful
weekend in Bradford in March 1996, we are currently planning the
4th Widescreen Festival. The 4th Widescreen Film Festival will run through
the 3rd Bradford Film Festival, but the core special weekend 14 - 16 March
1997 will be full of
widescreen material.
We will be showing "How the West Was Won" again in 3-strip
Cinerama, 7-track magnetic stereophonic sound in all its Technicolor glory and
"This is
Cinerama" in their original 3-strip version. There will be a Sunday morning
screening of "Windjammer" (a faded print with German/Dutch narration) - a
chance for everyone to see it in 3-strip Cinemiracle despite the poor
quality print. We will be screening 70mm prints of "It's A Mad, Mad, Mad,
Mad World" and "Lawrence of Arabia".
UIP have agreed to let us preview the restored "Vertigo" in 70mm DTS on the
Saturday and we are trying to bring James B. Katz and Robert A. Harris to
talk about restoring 70mm films. Mr Dion Hanson of Dolby Laboratories will
present a Film Formats event and Mr John Steven Lasher will world premiere
his 3-strip Kinopanorama preview "Truth, Chastity and Kinopanorama". Of
course there will be the odd surprise. We are also trying to fit in 70mm
screenings of "My Fair Lady" and "Spartacus". We will be screening another
40 films during the Festival including 30 new films from Woody Allen's
"Everyone Says I Love You" to Claude Leluouch's "Men Women: A Users Manual";
from "Microcosmos" to new IMAX films.
We are inviting all fans of 70mm
to bring with them any unusual pieces of 70mm film that they would like to
see on the curved Cinerama screen to be shown in a special section on Sunday
March 16, 1997. If you could warn us in that would be helpful.
Bradford is still unique in Britain because it boasts the country's only
IMAX cinema with its huge, 54' x 62' (16,5 m x 18,9 m) screen. As part of
the Bradford Film Festival, the National Museum of Photography, Film and
Television offers a chance to preview extraordinary new IMAX films, some
never before seen in Europe.
Please write to Bill Lawrence,
National Museum of Photography, Film and Television, Pictureville, Bradford,
England BD1 1NQ, England. Or fax +44 1274 723 155 for more details.
