Otherwise, this

which is being
presented here by
the Soviet Ministry
of Culture in
conjunction with the
Soviet exhibition at

generally handsome
and impressive

travelogue, notably
short on people and
propaganda and long
on spectacular
views. |

My first movie at
the Kinopanorama was
"Lawrence of Arabia"
and my first in

discovery and
experience, in

forty more memorable
visits (including
“West Side Story”- a
few times, “El Cid”,
“War and Peace”,
“The Sound of
Music”, “My Fair
Lady”, “Lawrence of
Arabia” restoration
...) until December
1989 with “Indiana
Jones and the last
Crusade”. |

Paris Update
By Jean-Noël
Grosmenil
The so called
"control desk" was
the pre-control
table to test the
SOUND equipement
before a
Kinopanorama Show
(3x35 and 70 with
sep mag sound). It
was also used to do
the intermission
from the booth,
during the early
70mm years. At the
bottom of that desk,
located very close
to the sound dubbers,
there was 18
pre-amplifiers
racks. The MAIN
theatre control
table was removed
since 1974, during
the new orchestra
refit. |

Cinerama Impressions
From The Dome
By
David Granadino
The crowd in the Dome on both nights were enthusiastic and surrounded the
Cinerama master himself, Dave Strohmaier, during the intermission and after
the presentations! I noticed that the crowd for THE BEST OF CINERAMA had
more young people in attendance than the night before which made me hopeful
that these young people will love Cinerama as much as we "older" ones. |
