Introduction
The Schauburg Cinerama is one of the few surviving cinemas, with 70mm projectors, a red curtain and the huge curved and wide 70mm screen. It’s the perfect framework for the presentation of 70mm with 6-track sound. Some films are in original versions and some "70mm Vintage Classics" are dubbed into German.

The 2008 Weekend program will be a variety of old 70mm films with a GALA performance on Saturday evening celebrating the world of 70mm film.

Traditional breakfast and lunch functions Saturday and Sunday.

Around the world in Three Days on the curved Cinerama screen. Everything is included - in the majestic 70mm format at the Schauburg cinema in Karlsruhe.

Dear Thomas

I would like to thank you for sending me my "Friends of 70 mm" certificate. I also wanted you to know that you can count on my support this year again and in the future.

Thank you also for your efforts in continuing providing 70 mm enthusiasts like myself with such a great web site.

Unfortunately I will not be able to attend Bradford wide screen week end this year, my schedule will not permit me to get away that week.

I will definitely be in Karlshure in October and cant wait for a great week end of 70 mm at the Schauburg. Hopefully this year will feature more restored films. Last year in my opinion had too many PINK presentations.

Kindest regards
