Previous year's screenings of classic sci-fi on the 3rd? 4th? largest screen on
the west coast, Seattle's Cinerama theater have been good... but never this
good. No need to get too hyperbolic or hyper-expositive on this one as it's
basically self-evident what's going on here. Nonetheless, I feel I should point
out that all of these are at least 35mm prints, with some (like "2001"!) being
70mm and when, if ever, in your life will you get a chance again to witness
Tarkovsky's "Solaris", Lynch's "Dune", Gilliam's "Brazil" or even the classic
piece of 70's interstellar bummer-times "Silent Running" on this quality a
screen/soundsystem? Never. That's when. Check that list of films!:
2001: A Space Odyssey (70mm) • Barbarella • Brazil • Clockwork
Orange • Close Encounters Of The Third Kind • Dune • E.T. • Flash
Gordon • Forbidden Planet • Ghostbusters • Mad Max • Matrix •
Metropolis (w/ The Alloy Orchestra) • Omega Man • Planet Of The
Apes • Road Warrior • Silent Running • Solaris • Soylent Green • Star
Trek 2 • Terminator • THX 1138 • Tron (70mm) • War Of The Worlds
