„Film Classics“ – episches Kino im 70mm-Format
Sonntags-Matinee-Reihe von KINOMUSEUM BERLIN E.V. und ASTOR FILMLOUNGE


In regelmässigen Matinee-Veranstaltungen von Oktober 2010 bis April 2011 möchten wir das klassische Roadshow-Kino wieder beleben. Die großformatigen Klassiker der Fünfziger und Sechziger Jahre kennen viele nur vom TV- und Video-Markt, aber erst im Kino können diese Filme auf der breiteren Bildwand und mit opulentem Raumklang ihre unvergleichliche Wirkung entfalten. Für diese Rezeption waren die Filme ursprünglich gedacht, und viele sagen, dass sie auch nur so richtig erfahrbar sind.

Werden Breitwandfilme wie eine „Filmoper“ zelebriert, fesseln selbst überlange Monumentalsujets. Für Traditionskinos, die noch mit entsprechender Vorführapparatur ausgerüstet sind, bietet sich die Möglichkeit, eine Brücke zur Vergangenheit zu schlagen. Somit können wir mit der Astor Film Lounge bei entsprechender Präsentation mit Rahmenprogramm Kino wieder als gesellschaftliches Ereignis zelebrieren.
