Hartford really was the place to see Cinerama. The Colonial was a true dedicated Cinerama house.

Just turn the map upside down and Krakatoa is East of Java.

Who ever said the earth has a true north?

Like Martin Hart stated in the Widescreen Museum site regarding “Krakatoa…”, the fact that it was actually west of Java was “the least of its problems”. The movie was repackaged with the title “Volcano”.

Can’t wait for Seattle’s turn…

Krakatoa volcano is west of Java, between Java and Sumatra. The correct title of the movie should have been “Krakatoa – East of Sumatra”. But it is surprising that there was only one Cinerama presentation in New Haven.

Poor New Haven. Only one Cinerama presentation, and it had to be that one. At least Hartford wasn’t too far away.
