 The following is a reference/historical list of the Cinerama-branded 70mm
roadshow engagements of “Khartoum” held in North America. These presentations
utilized special rectified prints derived from 65mm
Ultra Panavision photography
and projected onto large, deeply curved screens. The audio was six-track
stereophonic. The seating was reserved at advanced prices and with an average of
ten scheduled screenings per week. The cinemas in which these special
presentations played also sold souvenir programs. The United Artists release was directed by Basil Dearden and starred Charlton Heston and Laurence Olivier. Its North American premiere was held simultaneously in the Golden Triangle of Denver, Minneapolis and Omaha on June 20th, 1966.
