The
following is a reference / historical listing of the roadshow presentations
of The Hallelujah Trail in the United States and Canada. These were the
first and arguably best cinemas in which to experience this motion picture.
The presentations cited in the main section of this work were hard ticket
roadshow engagements (i.e. special, long-running, showcase presentations in
major cities prior to the film being exhibited as a general release). Much
like a stage production, these typically featured advanced admission
pricing, reserved seating, an overture/intermission/entracte/exit music.
Souvenir program booklet were sold, as well, and, in some locales, the
films soundtrack album.
The print type utilized during the films initial roadshow release was
rectified 70-millimeter (sourced from Ultra Panavision 70 and branded
[except where noted] as Cinerama) with discrete magnetic six-channel
stereophonic sound and projected onto large, deeply-curved screens.
Out of the hundreds of films released in North America during 1965, The
Hallelujah Trail was among only ten given deluxe roadshow treatment and
among only eleven released with 70mm prints (eight from 65mm origination,
including The Hallelujah Trail, plus three blow-ups).
The Mirisch Corporation presentation and United Artists release was directed
by John Sturges (Ice Station Zebra) and starred Burt Lancaster, Lee Remick,
Jim Hutton, Pamela Tiffin, Donald Pleasence, Brian Keith and Martin Landau.
