The
following is a reference/historical listing of the first-run 70-millimeter
engagements of “Rollerball” in North America. These were near full-width
prints (approximately 2.00:1) blown-up from 35mm spherical photography and
included discrete six-track audio. The United Artists release was directed by
Norman Jewison and starred James Caan and John Houseman.
“Rollerball” was among four 1975 first-run films released with 70mm
prints for selected engagements.
1975-06-25 … Los Angeles, CA — Cinerama Dome (19 weeks)
1975-06-25 … New York, NY — Ziegfeld (8)
1975-06-26 … Chicago, IL — McClurg Court (8)
1975-06-26 … Houston, TX — Windsor (14)
1975-06-27 … Toronto, ON — University (12)
1975-07-01 … San Francisco, CA — Regency I (15)
1975-07-01 … Washington, DC — Uptown (9)
1975-07-02 … Dallas, TX — Medallion (13)
1975-07-02 … Denver, CO — Century 21 (13)

1975-07-09 … Detroit (Southfield), MI — Northland (9)
1975-07-16 … San Diego, CA — Cinerama (9)
Some engagements were double-billed with another MGM or United Artists film
during the latter weeks of their run.
This information has been principally referenced from film industry trade
publications and regional newspaper promotion, with thanks to Bill Kretzel,
Monty Marin and Vince Young. Any subsequent engagements (move-overs, second-run,
re-release, midnight, festival, etc.) and international engagements have not
been accounted for in this article.
