from what I can tell from the website, it’s a one time showing of the non-3D version but with a Q&A with the director and writer.
In the most bizarre booking I’ve seen in a long time, the Dome is showing “Slumdog Millionaire” along with “My Bloody Valentine”…

Executive producer of “Slipper & the Rose” was David Frost.
Well now we know what movie bcareful saw them prepping to shoot at the Dome from his September 19th post of 2007…
Frost/Nixon
I tried to take some interior photos in the dome before the movie started, but it was too dark. Besides, the Arclight ushers are very involved in having phones turned off and the rest. No argument from me there.
How about some “good” and “varied” indoor pics of the Cinerama theater, itself? :)

Here are some photos from last night. Coincidentally, the Cinerama Dome was seen in the Frost/Nixon movie.

According to their official website, the upcoming releases scheduled to open at the Arclight include:
I just bought tickets to see Nixon/Frost tomorrow night. The last movie I saw at the Cinerama Dome was “Arachnophobia”, so it’s been a while.
I posted this ad two years ago, but here it is again in honor of the anniversary. As Mr. Sittig said, and as it says in this ad, it’s still the only one of its kind:

45 years ago today.
From MAD World to MADagascar, the Cinerama Dome celebrates its 45th
Anniversary, November 7, 2008. From the roadshow generation to digital screen presentation, and a few face lifts along the way, it’s still “the only theatre of it’s kind in the world!”
I’d bet that The Man Who Would Be King with Sean Connery introducing would have been great. Imagine, the original James Bond in person!
Yes, last year’s lineup was great. You can’t get much better than “Spartacus”!
I saw WSS at the Dome many years ago. It was absolutely wonderful, the 6-track sound was terrific. Can’t wait to see the new 70 MM print!
Will shoot for Godfather II this weekend…

AFI Night At The Movies is sold out. I didn’t get a ticket. It’s just as well…this year’s lineup wasn’t too appealing to me. At least “West Side Story” isn’t in the Dome!
I’m sorry, I think I got confused – the D-5 is not the roadshow version – it’s the 157 minute version, but the DVD of it does have the intermission and exit music – the D5 doesn’t. Sorry for the the confusion – it was the initial post about why the intermission wasn’t there that confused me.
Well the restored 70 MM print of South Pacific that was shown at the Egyptian about two years ago was not the roadshow version. However, they did screen a faded roadshow print during the same weekend. According to the IMBD, the roadshow version is 171 min, while the other runs for 157 min.
JSA
It was the roadshow version – and the intermission and entr'acte was gone because they couldn’t fit them on the D-5, which is what they showed. Same thing happened when they did the screening at the Pacific’s a few years ago, and that was explained to us by the fellow who did the restoration.
Tickets go on sale Sep. 17 for AFI NIGHT AT THE MOVIES. The Oct. 1 event is scheduled to feature the following films with celebrity introductions:
THE MAN WHO WOULD BE KING (presented by Sean Connery)
AMERICAN BEAUTY (Annette Bening)
ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND (Jim Carrey)
THERE’S SOMETHING ABOUT MARY (Cameron Diaz)
THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS (Jodie Foster)
TOOTSIE (Dustin Hoffman)
THE APARTMENT (Shirley MacLaine)
THE JERK (Steve Martin)
WEST SIDE STORY (Rita Moreno)
AUSTIN POWERS: INTERNATIONAL MAN OF MYSTERY (Mike Myers)
THE MATRIX (Keannu Reeves)
GLORY (Denzel Washington)
Why did the recent screening of South Pacific have the Intermission (and therefore Entr'acte) missing? A friend who attended stated the restless nature of the audience, coming in and out of the auditorium – particularly in the second half of the film – ruined the experience.
Under the title “How the West was Shown”, the in70mm site has posted a short article and some pictures from this weekend’s Cinerama events at the Dome:

I got Russ Tamblyn’s autograph at a sci-fi/horror convention a few years ago and he was extremely nice, talking with me about Cinerama and “The Haunting”, etc. He also posed for a picture with me.
To manwithnoname,
I was one of the autograph hounds “bothering” Russ Tamblyn during intermission of “How the West Was Won.” Mr. Tamblyn was perfectly gracious about giving autographs to my friend and me. He was not bothered in the least.

My last film in the Dome was “Rambo”. The CG expoding disembowelments looked great on the giant curved screen! I saw “Diving Bell & the Butterfly” on the same day. Probably the only person on earth who can say that.
