| The following is a reference / historical listing of the 70-millimeter presentation of Disney’s “Mulan” in North America. “Mulan,” a one-off 70mm event, was directed by Barry Cook and Tony Bancroft (“Beauty and the Beast”) and featured the voice talents of Ming-Na Wen, Eddie Murphy, BD Wong, Miguel Ferrer, June Foray, James Hong, Pat Morita and George Takei. The 70mm print of “Mulan” featured pillarboxed imagery (approximately 1.85:1) blown up from spherical 35mm. The audio was interlocked with the magnetic printmaster. DTS timecode was applied on Reel 5 to use the DTS process to synchronize some fireworks at the end of the film presentation. A 70mm coming-attraction trailer for “The Parent Trap” was included in the presentation.
