If RobertEndres is still following this I wonder if he remembers if Mame and At Long Last Love were presented in stereo at the Hall. I seem to remember that they were but I am not 100% sure.

I ask this because the blurays are in mono. Of course the lps are in stereo. Were the film stereo tracks lost or were the films always in mono?

I will check the files next time I’m in.

I once said that Sunflower was the only film that was dubbed into english to have played at the Hall. I may be wrong. It seems that The Brain which was the ‘69 Thanksgiving film was filmed in french and dubbed into english except for Niven who I assume spoke in english throughout. Anybody have further details about this?

Sound system, projection and lighting? What about it?

They’re also halfway finished with installing new carpet everywhere.

The one thing I do know for sure is there will not be anything at the Hall until at least July 2021. Most departments were contacted a few weeks ago that they will be coming in one day to pack away equipment until next July.

When we finally get a vaccine, the Music Hall will be packing them in again. Hope so, anyway.

It would be interesting if Tishman Speyer tried to appeal it. However I have a friend in NY who’s a member of IATSE who is plugged into all the talk and when I brought it up to her said she’s heard nothing of the sort however she added that she wouldn’t be surprised.

The entire interior of the Music Hall was designated – landmark status by the LPC in 1978. That designation would have to be appealed and reversed before any such conversion, as described above, would be allowed.

Tishman Speyer owns Rockefeller Center. The Music Hall is probably a major drain and they could make a fortune putting in profit generating commercial outlets.

I believe that MSG is just the owner of the operating lease for Radio City Music Hall. Any decisions on the future of the property itself if MSG defaults or negotiates out of the lease would be left up to the ownership of Rockefeller Center.

I hope this isnt true either, however, with this virus thing closing so many businesses for so long, anything is possible. This is a big nut on the MSG books, and now with them losing perhaps the biggest money maker they have, the Christmas Show, more money can be made with all the things listed above. My wife, who works on the Christmas Show said it was a huge mistake they cancelled it so early.

This was posted by Pantopticon on September 28, 2020 at 4:04 pm on the photo page but it deserves to be here:

‘Don’t take this for certain but, the theater industry pipeline has this theater, regardless of landmark status as changing. Interior conversion to mini mall, restaurants, apartments, and office space. Hopefully not.

No one wants to see another one bite the dust.'

Holmes did so poorly it ended Thanksgiving films at the Hall forever. It was pulled mid November and the Christmas show with Scrooge was rushed in causing the entire western world to rush Christmas when before the holiday season always started in December. A vestige of this remains as the Christmas tree lighting at Rockefeller Center is still in December.
