Having a bet in the air, i need the help from someone remembering:
Jonathan Livingston Seagull - any kind of stereo sound (cinema prints) ? -maybe even 70mm ?Per

Now there's one I haven't seen on film in *long* while... Has it really been 26 years?The print we had in Las Vegas was mono-optical--don't know if there were any mag prints in the larger first-run cities in the US.
I was 18 when that film came out and was just starting my first paid camera position (TK-41C in the studio, TK-60 in the truck, Arri 16BL in the field). The photography in that film, especially the day-for-night stuff, was an inspiration!
Sorry, doesn't answer your bet does it?

I'm not 100% sure, but seems like I remember that being in 4-track mag.I'm maybe 80% sure.

Probably was released with mag copies. I remember running it as a double with Jesus Christ Superstar (good double, eh?) which was a four track print.The IMDB doesn't stipulate its sound format but this was interesting...
Film negative format (mm/video inches)
35 mm
Cinematographic process
Panavision (anamorphic)
Printed film format
35 mm
Aspect ratio
2.35 : 1
I could have sworn I remember it being flat. Am I going insane, Tim? Do you remember?

It was scope, John. That much I am sure of.

I'll second that--it was 'scope. Looked really good on the Parkway's deep curve (D-150?) screen.

Okay...it was a long time ago...You do not live as we live...
You do not fly as we fly...
You are therefore, henceforth and forever...

Well if it's not in 70mm, then it's not good enough, right?
