I was a kid when I saw the first Cinerama movie In Philadelphia. When the curtain opened and Lowell started to speak, I was frantically trying to figure out why they needed that huge screen. Then he said the magic words, "This is Cinerama" and my whole movie changed. I help I never forget that moment...it was so exciting for this little kid from the stick. Fantastic.

Outstanding... they should show this at IMAX theaters to get the true widescreen effect. I'd pay for it!

Motion picture fans and historians will forever be indebted to all those involved in rescuing these priceless cinematic gems. Next on wish list: A Blu-Ray release of latest version scan of 'This Is Cinerama' to replace that extremely disappointing prior release (reminiscent of a 16mm blowup). The stereo audio fell slightly short of expectation as well.

Since my adverse criticisms four-years ago regarding the Blu-Ray release of 'This Is Cinerama' a completely new perfected version has been released. This time the same painstaking restoration procedure as used for 'Best Of Cinerama' was accorded. The result is truly magnificent.

I was lucky enough to see How the West Was Won in true Cinerama in a revival theatre in Dayton, Ohio. So sad that process went away, it was truly spectacular.

Wonderful work! I wish I had your expertise. It's fabulous to see our film history being restored and preserved! This should be a government sponsored profession! In my eyes, you're a god! Can 2001 in Smilebox with a restored soundtrack and accurate color palate be far behind?

I want to state that the restored version of the church chorus ,fromThis is Cinerama , was never considered by Merian C. Cooper to be a part of the compile.It's not part of the feature.M.r Strhomier was just Demonstrating the Restoration of that sequence ,since the whole movie was re restored,but too expensive to up grade to the older one on Blu- Ray .
