Somewhere over the last couple of years, Amanda has fallen in love with this movie. I have admired it completely since I saw the restoration with my Father back in 1989 at the Century City AMC Complex. Last night was the second time in 7 months that we got to experience it on the big screen. That's in addition to the two times I've watched it on the fabulous Blu Ray Special package that I got as a Father's Day gift. I'm not going to do a complete post on it today, but I will post a link to the Vlog I put up last June, in case you missed it.
Last nights screening was at the Egyptian Theater. The audience was packed and there were hundreds of people seeing it for the first time.
Needless to say we had a great time. Amanda's New Years Resolution is to see this on the big screen every time it plays somewhere in the L.A. Area. That seems good to me.
I'm am disturbingly jealous. This is a film that I have been saying for years needs to be seen in the biggest format available, but I've never seen it on a big screen.
ReplyDeleteI can't say it's the only way to see it, but I can say it is the best way.
