 KARLSRUHE,
April 2016 / in70mm.com news. We have launched the 12th instalment of the
“Todd-AO 70mm Festival“ to be held from 30. September - 2. October, 2016 at the
Schauburg Cinerama in Karlsruhe, in the south West of Germany. For three days in October
Filmtheater Schauburg
celebrates the world of LARGE FORMAT film, by offering a series of epic
films in 70mm - the Ultra HD of film formats.
The Todd-AO Festival at the Schauburg is about going to the movies in style. Seeing
the films at the Schauburg is like seeing the films as they were
originally presented - in a big cinema, on a huge curved screen with red
curtains. It's all about showmanship and presentation, and very few
cinemas today - if any - do it better than the staff of the Schauburg.
From vintage classics to the latest Roadshow 70mm films, all of which
proudly carry trade names of large format motion picture processes. The festival is much more than 70mm films. Enjoy Schauburg's
famous breakfast buffet, listen to lectures and witness a special
section with rarely seen 70mm short films. On Friday night, festival
sponsor the local brewery Hoepfner traditionally hosts a ”Hoepfner Get
together” with free beers.
Included in the ticket is also the 40-48 page full-color printed souvenir
program especially made for the Todd-AO Festival. It includes detailed
information and pictures of the films shown, as well as an article or
two, relevant to the weekend. A treasure to take home and keep. All
free of charge and included in the festival ticket.
Join us and be part of this unique event and share the excitement
together with visitors from all around the world - including Austria,
Switzerland, Holland, Germany, Denmark, England, USA, Japan, Sweden and France
- and hopefully many more.
Some films are in their original English versions and some "70mm Vintage
Classics", are dubbed into German. Due to the age of the prints, many
have lost their color and are faded. But they are ORIGINAL premiere 70mm
prints from the 1960s.
Like all modern cinemas, The Schauburg enjoys the benefits and
advantages of digital projection technology, but the "Todd-AO Festival
Policy" is simple. NO DIGITAL! No compromise at the Schauburg
where 70mm is concerned! That is our Todd-AO Festival hall mark, as we
honour 60 years of 70mm projectionist tradition, and present film as
they were meant to be presented, on genuine 70MM film, done by real
people.
One of very few original cinemas, still equipped with 70mm projectors.
A new Harkness screen was installed for the 11th Todd-AO Festival
in 2015.
The screen is 16,15
meters wide along the curve, screen chord is 14 meters, Todd-AO
height is 6,4 meters, and the
depth of the screen is 3,45
meters. Projection distance is
23,8 meters, radius is 8,8 meters and screen curvature is
approximately 105 degrees. The
curved screen has both vertical and horizontal moveable masking and
covered with a "Cinerama
red" curtain.
"No expenses are spared
to give you the very best experience.", says Herbert Born, and he
continues: "It is a Harkness Perlux 140 with a 1,4 gain which helps to reduce the cross
reflections of the deeply curved Cinerama screen at the Schauburg."

 • "in 70mm" is unlike anything you have ever seen - a High Definition
movie experience with extremely sharp images and crystal clear 6 track
stereo.
• "in 70mm" is very realistic, almost three dimensional and can make
everything you have ever seen pale into insignificance. But don't take
our word for it - come and see for your self.
All 70mm films will be projected by vintage and historically correct
Philips DP70 and
DP75 projectors. Magnetic sound by Dolby Laboratories sound
equipment and state of the art Alcon speakers.

Harlan goes to Karlsruhe
By Thomas Hauerslev
Jan Harlan will
introduce a digital screening of "2OO1: A Space Odyssey" on September 29th,
at the Schauburg. Jan have flown over from London especially to be with us that

Throughout the weekend, we are quite sure, that "2OO1" in 2K, surely

2OO1: A Space
Odyssey / USA 1968.
Filmed in
Super Panavision 70 (2,21:1). Presented in
2K DCP Cinerama (2,20:1) / 6 track digital stereo / 142 minutes. World premiere: 02.04.1968.
German premiere: 11.11.1968.
Produktion: Stanley Kubrick. Regie: Stanley
Kubrick. Buch: Stanley Kubrick, Arthur C. Clarke.
Vorlage: Arthur C. Clarke (Kurzgeschichte). Kamera:
Geoffrey Unsworth, John Alcott. Musik: Aram
Khatschaturian, Richard Strauss, Johann Strauß, György Ligeti.
Schnitt: Ray Lovejoy
Darsteller: Keir Dullea (David Bowman), Gary Lockwood (Frank
Poole), William Sylvester (Dr. Heywood Floyd), Leonard Rossiter
(Smyslov), Daniel Richter (Mondbeobachter), Robert Beatty (Halvorsen),
Frank Miller (Chef der Expedition), Ed Bishop
Ein geheimnisvoller schwarzer Monolith, der offenbar von
Außerirdischen stammt, beeinflusst in grauer Vorzeit die
Entstehung von Intelligenz und den "Aufbruch der Menschheit",
wird Jahrtausende später von Wissenschaftlern auf dem Mond
entdeckt und lockt ein Forschungsraumschiff in Richtung Jupiter.
Die Mission endet nach dem Versagen des Bordcomputers mit einer
Katastrophe; der einzig überlebende Astronaut begegnet der
außerirdischen Macht und erfährt eine kosmische Wiedergeburt.
Kubricks fantastisches Kinoabenteuer vereint technische Utopie
und kulturphilosophische Spekulation zu einer Weltraumoper von
überwältigendem Ausmaß. Der kühne gedankliche Entwurf des Films
(eine Entwicklungsgeschichte der Menschheit voller Skepsis und
bitterer Ironie) wird mit nicht minder kühnen optischen Effekten
und einer revolutionären Tricktechnik realisiert, die das Genre
des Science-Fiction-Films in den folgenden Jahren entscheidend
prägten. (Quelle: Film-Dienst)

Festival Welcome |
 Welcome
to the 12thy Todd-AO Festival. Meet and greet friends of 70mm and
curved screens. Talk about vinegar, pink prints and the big
classics.
This festival, dedicated to a movie format nearly 60 years old, is
a dream for a lot of movie fans around the world. Today, movies
and cinemas have reached a time of change – a change from film
based to digital cinema and a change in the way movies are felt
and understood. We are sure, that our “Todd-AO 70mm Festival”
presented on the curved screen of the Schauburg not only will
make you remember cinema-going from a time long ago, but also
make you aware of the responsibility we all have: To honour the
genius of so many people who have given us stories and
unforgettable moments in breathtaking and crystal clear large
format pictures.
Let us hope, that the splendour of 70mm not only serves our
nostalgic dreams, but also offers the chance for a young
audience to experience a historic and magic landmark of cinema.

Kunstvoll ausgemaltes Gesellschafts- und Sittenbild aus dem viktorianischen
England um die Jahrhundertwende, wo sich Persönlichkeiten aus zwei Familien mit
erzkonservativen Auffassungen und emanzipatorischen Idealen in den dadurch
ausgelösten Liebesschicksalen und Lebenskrisen gegenüberstehen. Die Verfilmung
folgt zwar genau dem psychologischen Wahrheitsgehalt der Vorlage, stumpft ihre
ironisch-kritische Gesellschaftsbelichtung aber durch schwelgerische Ästhetik
ab. Sie verschenkt zugunsten einer gepflegt-nostalgischen Unterhaltung die
Chance, den Gegensatz von gesellschaftlich bedingtem "Scheinleben" und
wirklicher Persönlichkeitsstruktur und Lebensempfindung zu einem zeitlos
ansprechenden Gleichnis zu formen. Hervorragend gespielt und fotografiert.

Die Evakuierung Shanghais und der japanisch-chinesische Krieg als Hintergrund
für die dramatische Fluchtgeschichte eines zwölfjährigen Engländers im Jahr
1941. Der mit immensem Aufwand inszenierte Film imponiert vor allem in den
Massenszenen; er ist darüber hinaus hervorragend gespielt von dem jungen
Hauptdarsteller, dessen Perspektive er rigoros übernimmt. Damit wird er jedoch
über weite Strecken zu melodramatisch und bleibt zu wenig informativ. (Quelle:

Als außerirdische Schurken Metropolis zerstören, wendet sich die öffentliche
Stimmung gegen den Superhelden Superman. Vor allem dessen Kollege Batman
zweifelt an Supermans Verlässlichkeit und stellt sich ihm entgegen, während ein
gemeinsamer Feind eine neue Bedrohung ausheckt. Bombastisches Action- und
Heldenspektakel, hinter dessen zahlreichen Kampf- und Explosionssequenzen sich
eine krude Zerstörungsästhetik bar jeder Ironie offenbart. Sowohl als
Fortsetzung von gleich zwei Filmreihen als auch als Scharnier zu einem ganzen
Superhelden-Universum ist der unkonzentrierte Film zudem erzählerisch
überlastet. (Quelle: Film-Dienst)

Written and Directed by Pierre Jallaud. Produced by
Sylve Jallaud. Photography Georges Barsky. Editing
Philippe Gosselet. An Objectifs Production
Randy Gitsch (2009): "An Anglo-French production,
directed by Pierre Jallaud, and for Open University
Productions. This is a background sketch on the
about-to-be-unveiled supersonic airplane that I must
admit, keeps you in suspense. Be sure to check out the
shoes worn by the wing-makers in Toulouse."
"Bridge to Space", 1968
Directed by Robert Gaffney. Produced by Charles R.
Trieschmann. Edited by Angeleo Ross, A.C.E. Cinerama
Inc. and Seneca Productions. Technicolor
Randy Gitsch (2009): “Bridge to Space" (1968) was
directed by “Cinerama Holiday”,
"Windjammer"
and "Sky over Holland" widescreen veteran Robert
Gaffney, for N.A.S.A. and Gaffney’s own Seneca
Productions. Shot on Merritt Island and at Cape
Canaveral, and inside what was then, and may still be,
the largest building in the world.
Bob Gaffney told me
last week that N.A.S.A. insisted on making a shorter,
cut-down version of this picture for television, which
he then disowned".

Die Lebensgeschichte der amerikanischen Anthropologin Dian Fossey, die in den

Gorillas studiert. Sie entwickelt eine starke Beziehung zu den Menschenaffen,
denen sie sogar ihre Liebe zum Fotografen Bob Campbell opfert. Ihre zunehmende
Verschrobenheit und ihr unerbittlicher Kampf gegen Wilderer münden schließlich
in ihrer Ermordung. Obwohl etwas zu einseitig der Faszination von Person und
Aufgabe erliegend, entwirft der an Ort und Stelle gedrehte Film die
eindrucksvolle Geschichte eines modernen wissenschaftlichen Abenteuers. (Quelle:

 Since the dawn of cinema the standard film size has been 35mm film, but for
certain films, the larger 65mm negative was used in the camera to ensure the
best possible image quality. The benefit was a clearer and sharper screen
image compared to "inferior" 35mm films. The "big" films
often premiered in the largest cinemas, featuring huge screens that
were often deeply curved - compared to contemporary flat screens.
The curvature of the screen had an enveloping effect on the
audience which gave them a feeling of participation in the
action on the screen.

in der sechs undurchsichtige Gestalten sie in ein Wortgefecht verstricken, das
auf eine gewaltsame Eruption zusteuert. Was als (Schnee-)Western beginnt,
erinnert in der kunstvollen Mischung aus Klaustrophobie, Paranoia und
gegenseitigen Verdächtigungen immer mehr an eine Agatha-Christie-Verfilmung. Die
Inszenierung betont durch ihr extremes Breitwandformat die bedrängende Enge, die
detailreichen Bilder zeigen jede Pore, die Darsteller haben sichtlich Freude an
ihren überzeichneten Rollen. Trotz solch formaler Originalität haftet dem Film
aber ein ernüchternder Beigeschmack an: Noch bombastischer lässt sich ein
Kammerspiel kaum noch aufblasen. (Quelle: Film-Dienst)

Der Polizeidetektiv Dick Tracy zwischen Gangstern, verführerischem Vamp,
verständnisvoller Freundin und einem tapferen kleinen Jungen, den er aus den
Slums befreit. Der dem 50 Jahren alten Comic-Cartoon von Chester Gould
nachgestaltete Film entwirft für seinen Helden eine Kinowelt, die ihre
Anregungen ebenso aus den Comic Strips wie aus den Filmen der 30er und 40er
Jahre bezieht. Fantasievoll und unterhaltsam inszeniert, raffiniert durch
Kunstgriffe und Prinzipien, nach denen die Themenkomplexe des Films - Kampf
gegen den Mob, Versuchung durch den Vamp, romantische Bindungen - organisiert
werden. Für die verschiedenen Emotionsebenen werden visuelle Formeln (etwa in
der Verwendung von Primärfarben) entwickelt, wobei diese filmische Struktur eine
immer engere Verbindung mit der Kreation der Comic-Welt eingeht; dabei wird die
Gewalttätigkeit des Genres ins Spielerische aufgelöst. (Quelle: Film-Dienst)

Die Geschichte des amerikanischen Testpiloten Chuck Yeager, der 1947 als erster
die Schallmauer durchbrach, verbunden mit der der sieben ersten Astronauten des
amerikanischen Raumfahrtprogramms von 1959 bis 1963. Ein sowohl von spöttischer
Ironie als auch von ehrlicher Bewunderung für diese "Helden der Nation"
geprägter Film, der dank der mitreißenden Darstellung der extremen Flüge bis zum
Schluß spannend bleibt. (Quelle: Film-Dienst)

 Once
again, the projector lens will light up the screen and show
unbelievably sharp 70mm images of lesser-known and rarely seen
films. Some of which only exist in this single 70mm print. Don’t
forget, some of these films would be completely forgotten a long
time ago, were it not for these rare 70mm prints. The sharpness
will still make it a pleasant experience. And as much as you may
hate in on TV, you will have fun seeing it in 70mm on the curve.
This is your opportunity to witness the grandeur and spectacle
of nearly half a dozen Road-Show films on an authentic 70mm
Cinerama cinema.

Für den Angestellten eines Blumenladens bringt eine Pflanze, die sich von
Menschenblut ernährt, nicht nur Wohlstand, Ansehen und Liebesglück, sondern auch
Probleme, die schließlich in eine Beinahe-Katastrophe einmünden. Musical-Fassung
einer Gruselfilmparodie; recht schwungvoll inszeniert, aber am Ende hin zu sehr
den Spezialeffekten verpflichtet. Brauchbare Unterhaltung für Freunde des
schwarzen und lauten Humors. (Quelle: Film-Dienst)

Zwei Polizisten in Los Angeles, die einen Kronzeugen der Staatsanwaltschaft
schützen sollen, geraten in den Kampf gegen südafrikanische Rauschgiftschmuggler
aus höchsten diplomatischen Kreisen. Überraschend unterhaltsame Fortsetzung des
harten Kriminalfilms "Zwei stahlharte Profis" (1986). Die dünne Handlung wird
ebenso absichts- wie wirkungsvoll aufgeputscht durch betont übertriebene
Stereotype des Genres, viel Action, fabelhafte Spezialeffekte und eine gute
Portion Ironie. (Quelle: Film-Dienst)
