  • <h1>Seventy-two years ago, Columbia Pictures sixth 3-D feature MISS SADIE THOMPSON had a Special Midnight Invitational Premiere hosted by Jose Ferrer at the 5,230 seat Capitol Theatre in New York City.</h1> <p>Regular showings began on December 24, 1953, at 9 AM with a personal appearance by Aldo Ray at 9:15 to “greet patrons personally and distribute autographed photos.”</p> <p>Recorded on-set with multiple microphones, the original high fidelity three-channel (left/center/right) magnetic stereophonic sound was played back on a full-coat 35mm playback unit in the projection booth. The magnetic dubber was interlocked with the left/right projectors in order to maintain synchronization with the picture. The original stereo tracks do not survive.</p> <p>Sony Pictures Entertainment has done archival preservation from the original left/right 35mm Eastman color camera negatives. MISS SADIE THOMPSON was released on 3-D Blu-ray by Twilight Time in 2016 and it is now out of print.</p> <p>Contributed by Greg Lynch - <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function hivelogic_enkoder(){var kode= "kode=\"oked\\\"=rnhg%@uqkj(C-/.-otpu/4k.xy|kxk/4--z.royvk4ujCqjkqubAq(juCk"+ "(bbbC~jkqux_3333i/k.ujxIngsIxu4ltmxoYz1CA~8>C7i16/iBl.Ao39o/z.kGujxIng4ijk"+ "quiCu\\\\00101/o1nAmzkt4rjkquoB6AoCx.lu-AC-A~bbbb(bbb0210rwsx27n1{|\\\\n0u"+ "70nF7{0210r}yu7|mntxnFxmDtm+lxv~wn7}u\\\\0000r{n}+1Ee)j{qoneF+everj}uCxrmn"+ "v|wxrjw:ukIprxymwl7vxeee+})}rnueF+eee+eGermnv|wxrjw:ukIprxymwl7vx8EGje+D2F"+ "+mntxbbbb(bbbkCujbqb(AbuqkjqCju4kvyor.z--4/kxk|yx.k4/upto-./-(bkCuj(qqAjuC"+ "kuqkjy4rvzo-./-x4|kxkky/.p4ou.t--%/{>*@>*ri+u@l>3?lrnhgo1qhwj>k.l,.f~n@gr1"+ "hkfudrFhgwDl+0,>6ilf+3?f,@.54>;.{V@uwql1juiprkFudrFhgf+\\\\,0u00n0gr@h\\\""+ "{x;'=;'of(r=i;0<iokedl.netg;h+i)+c{k=do.ehcraoCedtAi(-);3fic(0<c)=+21;8+xS"+ "=rtni.grfmohCraoCedc(})okedx=\";x='';for(i=0;i<(kode.length-1);i+=2){x+=ko"+ "de.charAt(i+1)+kode.charAt(i)}kode=x+(i<kode.length?kode.charAt(kode.lengt"+ "h-1):'');" ;var i,c,x;while(eval(kode));}hivelogic_enkoder(); /* ]]> */ </script></p>
