Authors Seek Cinema Treasures

Film Journal International’s business/exhibition editor, Andreas Fuchs, has joined forces with Ross Melnick and Patrick Crowley, founders of CinemaTreasures.org, on a book that holds much promise to the exhibition industry. Cinema Treasures combines a survey of 100-plus years of motion picture exhibition history with profiles of theaters around the world. In addition to many classic palaces, which still have to present films today, the book will showcase movie theaters across all major eras (from the 1890s to the 1990s) and architectural styles. There will be single screen theaters, twins, triplexes, large-screen cinemas, multi- and megaplexes.

Many of our readers’ theatres have already been included, but the authors invite everyone to submit materials. A nomination form and more information is available online at www.cinematreasures.org/book/. Feel free to email AFuchs@creativecinema.net. Cinema Treasures is due in spring 2004 from MBI Publishing.

Today, we’re proud to announce that Andreas Fuchs has joined our Advisory Board, and will be contributing to Cinema Treasures.

A third generation cinema operator, Andreas Fuchs has over 20 years of business and creative experience, both in Europe and the United States. His company, Creative Cinema, works with exhibitors worldwide.
