home made "West Side Story" poster. Decorating the entrance to the
Royal. Image by Martin Lyhagen.When I started to think about what to show this year I finally decided that "West Side Story" was the one. I had no idea then that it would be so popular around the world on 70mm-festivals and even a new stage production on Broadway. So, I was really happy thinking I made the right choice. BUT it started off really slow. Not many seemed interested so I feared this would be the last 70mm-screening at the Royal. Well, enjoy it as long as possible and then there will be other festivals to attend.......... Copenhagen is very close and then we have Bradford and Karlsruhe not too far away. |

happy guests. Image by Martin Lyhagen.But then, all of a sudden, it took off and eventually we were 416 happy 70mm-lovers at the Royal on March 22, 11am. WOW!!! What a day. We had guest from all around Skåne. From Gothenburg, Stockholm and other parts of Sweden. And of course we had our group from Denmark. Not to forget one guest from the US. The print was a bit faded and red, but Roland Håkansoon, the 70mm projectionist and Jeppe, the head projectionist at the Royal did a great job. |

What we'll show I don't know yet, but the date is decided and the Royal is booked. Welcome to celebrate the 49th anniversary of the Royal. Sebastian Rosacker |
