“Forgotten Hollywood”- Cinerama Dome Celebrating 50 Years!
Manny P. here…
Southern California is celebrating the 50th anniversary of one of Tinsel Town’s most iconic film landmarks: The Cinerama Dome, a geodesic structure boasting a screen of 32 x 86 with a 146 degree curve. Opened on November 7th, 1963, the Dome was designed to show movies in the Cinerama process, known for its ultra-realistic projection, and is currently one of only three theaters of the kind left in the world.
For this extended event, the locale is screening modern classics in The Dome featuring Q&As with such industry luminaries as Oliver tone, Michael York, Mickey Rooney, Marvin Kaplan, and Barrie Chase, and Steven Spielberg with more to come. 3D fine art prints with proceeds going to AFI will be available. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime celebration.
Screenings include:
~ 10/22 – RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK @6p
~ 10/25 – AMERICAN BEAUTY @ 7:30p
~ 10/27 – IT’S A MAD MAD MAD MAD WORLD @ 5p
~ 10/29 – LOGAN’S RUN @ 7:30p
This is a must-stop for visitors of Hollywood…
Until next time> “never forget”
