There are 2 new prints of HTWWW that were struck from the original elements. Paul Allen's Vulcan, Inc has one which played at the Seattle Cinerama last year as well as last month. Pacific Theaters has the other. They are not dye transfer. (This info comes from David Strohmaier)

I called and confirmed with the Arclight (323-464-1524) that they will be showing How The West Was Won for a week starting May 2nd. They didn't have showtimes yet. I will be driving down on Sunday May 4th to see the show.

I saw "HOW THE WEST WAS WON" early in it's Road show run at the Cinerama Theatre here in Honolulu and found it had one of the most fantastic soundtrack I ever heard. As many of you know, I love music and Alfred Newman is one of my favorite film composer of the past and the the music he wrote for the film especially the overture, Main title, Entr'acte, exit music and the sound effects of the fight on the train loaded with logs was awesome! I still fondly remember the experience and envy all of you who have an opportunity to see the film at the Cinerama Dome again or for the very first time. How does the film sound it it's present condition? Did it lose some of it's dynamic range over the years or does the film pretty much sound the same as it did back in 1963 when it was first released?

The only people who can see it again at the Dome are those who attended a special SMPTE showing earlier this year. The original 3-strrip run was at the Warner Cinerama Theatre on Hollywood Blvd).

Bad news. looks as though you will have to postpone your trip.

Just received an e-mail from ArcLight Guest Services stating that they have moved the "launch date" (sic) to later in the year to allow them to better promote the film.

Well I hope when they have a new date they will give more than a two week lead [fu] . I was planing to go on the 4th. I live only a 1hr & 1/2 away but I would like to know at least a month before so I can get a group together.

I was going to suggest everyone email them complaining about the short notice but apparently they have already reconsidered and the word is that it's been pushed back to July or August. This is per the usually reliable Marty Hart, posting on newsgroup rec.arts.movies.tech

Of course there is still the chance that they won't announce it until shortly before so perhaps an email suggesting plenty of notice would still be a good idea. Click here for a mail form.
