"This Is"...Was my first and unic movie-show in real Cinerama at San Paolo - Brazil on the last triplex presentation in 1966! I had only 4 years-old...Ma'young mother,24, and died than afterdays...Just imagine the giant-O-rama screen, bright on the my little eyes,child,baby-face...Amazing,Stonich Stereosound,Beauty...Yes! I remember, mama! God! Thank You Cinerama-Mammy!
DEAR SIR OR MADAMA: Nobody believe me but I saw the first remake of STAGE-
COACH (made about 1966) in Cinerama when it was re-released in the early 1970s. I also saw the John Wayne movie, SONS OF KATIE ELDER, in Cinerama, too. This was in Dublin. Oh, and I saw THE GODFATHER: Part 1 in Dublin' s Cinerama cinema, as well. Surely EVERY movie could be reissued in Cinerama. Just think of the lovely evening that could be enjoyed by all. The worst part of ANY cinema is the popcorn.
Hi, these things critically works effectively, I ran across a much more refined variation of it at roulettecash!org without cost, and I produced some considerable cash.
Deberian de vender en DVD todas las películas emitidas en CINERAMA. Empezando por la primera que fué THIS IS CINERAMA y las siguientes LAS 7 MARAVILLAS DEL MUNDO, VIAJE A LOS MARES DEL SUR, etc. En total fueron 6 o 7 y luego, la primera con argumento fué LA CONQUISTA DEL OESTE, etc. pro a mí me interesan las primeras documentales que fué como en mi adolescencia empezé a viajar por el mundo. Las veía 7 u 8 veces. !Qué gozada! y qué nolstalgia. A nadie se le ocurre comercializarlas?. Saludos. MAD.
@antoniorosacarmen En Estados Unidos y tienen 3 películas de Cinerama en DVD. How the west was won (la conquista del oeste) Windjammer y ahora This is Cinerama. Pero a mi me cuesta conseguirlas porque vivo en Argentina. Gracias por tu apreciado comentario. Saludos cordiales
A principíos de los 60, tendria unos 10 años de edad, pude ver varias peliculas en Cinerama, en el cine Casino, en la ciudad de Buenos Aires. Que hermosos recuerdos de esa pantalla envolvente, que en el caso de la "Conquista del Oeste" era como estar viviendo dentro de la pelicula.
This is just great!! I remember our family going to see "This is Cinerama" in Detroit; I was a little kid at the time, and I still remember it. It was truly cutting edge technology back then, and it can still hold its own against IMAX. This really takes me back. Thanks so much for posting this.
@earlymusicus : I quite agree with you about Cinerama v. Imax. The latter has a postage -stamp-size screen compared to the former! Wouldn't you LOVE to see THE SOUND OF MUCUS/MUSIC in 3D at a Cinerama cinema??? And in surround sound? In second thoughts, no! Even so, let them bring back some of the great classics, both BW and colour. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE. And show them on a double-bill. Remember the double-bills?? Yeah, me, too. Des, June 5, 2011.
This is Cinerama was given in Buenos Aires at the cinema and theatre CASINO which was in Suipacha street near Corrientes Avenue in Buenos Aires. My grandfather told me about this event and he told me about a film Flying Clipper which was given at Gaumont cinema, the second film in cinerama. It was in the fifties. Nice memories
@AdolfoHaggen You are incorrect. I have the Harry Fox Agency cue sheets. The intermission music is by Max Steiner, as is the case with the introduction. Roy Webb composed most of the music for the Cyprus Gardens sequences.
The colour difference between where the shots overlap is terrible. If I was an artist I would never have considered using such a technique. You cannot capture the perfect picture.
For a few brief moments, I was transported back to my high school days at FRHS, 1939 to 1943. Some of the most memorable times of my life, ages 13 to 17. WOW!
Great clip! Thanks. I just wish they would restore "This is Cinerama" in it's entirety and Smilebox. I've just completed a 146 degree 12ft curved screen in my basement to show "How the West Was Won". I thought the picture would be distorted but it looks great! I'd like to locate other Smilebox productions if they exist.
Thank you very much Richard! I've got problems with the files convertion, i made what i could :oS I live in Buenos Aires n is very difficult to find cinerama stuff, i think i must to travel to Seatle! haha .
