Film Biografer, Imperial Bio and in70mm.com are taking great pride in
inviting you to experience something completely unique which you cannot get
in any other Danish cinema.
It is our pleasure to present some of the finest films produced by Hollywood
during the 1980s, and also a pair of true large format 70mm classics. All
films are presented in their original 70mm versions, which means LARGE
FORMAT and full blown 6-track Dolby Stereo.
The large format classics are presented in brand new 70mm prints and are
shown in their original "road-show" version, including overture,
intermission music and Entr’acte and 6-track state of the art digital sound.
Because 70mm film is about 3 times the size of ordinary 35mm film, it is
incredibly sharp. It has unprecedented image steadiness on the huge curved
screen, which means it is almost like looking out of a window to the real
world. The image is VERY sharp; contrast and color *) is AMAZING; and the image
on the screen is MUCH Brighter. This is really a High-Definition experience.
*) "Poltergeist" and "Fame" are vintage 70mm prints with some color fading
present.

Take this opportunity to see how films are presented when the presentation
is second to none.
Come and enjoy 70mm and 6-track stereophonic sound at Imperial Bio's large
curved 120 square meter screen.

Why 70mm is so Special
|
|
 "Lawrence
of Arabia" - The ultimate 70mm film.
Copyright SONY/Columbia Pictures 2008.
Published with permission
The audience get a lot more out of a film, if presented in 70mm with razor
sharp images and crystal clear sound. Films presented in 70mm are an
intensive experience, very realistic and almost three dimensional. It is an
experience which makes everything you have ever seen on film before pales
into insignificance. The audience really get value for their money!
