Restored 'Lawrence of Arabia' released for 50th anniversary!!!

Earlier this month, Peter O'Toole, who turns 80 in August, announced he's retiring.
Now, one of his most famous works, Lawrence of Arabia, returns to the big screen 50 years after its 1962 premiere in a special, digitally-restored version of the Director's Cut.
The restored film was shown at the Cannes film festival in May. On Thursday, a U.S. premiere is planned in Los Angeles at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences (O'Toole won't be there and Omar Sharif sent a taped message from Paris).
Lawrence of Arabia will make its theatrical debut Oct. 4. It will be available in a Blu-ray collectible box set starting Nov. 13 from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. And it will be featured for one night only on Turner Classic Movies, Nov. 16 at 8 p.m.

I was lucky enough to see this on a really big screen, the Indian Hills theatre, a former Cinerama screen, on it's 30 Anniversary. You can bet I will do my best to see it on the big screen again this October!

Coming soon to the Jordan Creek theatres (and possibly to a theatre near you!)

As part of the recent classic cinema showings, these are all coming in the next few weeks...

Windjammer: The Voyage of the Christian Radich

 
Finally! Coming our way on Blu Ray and DVD Sept. 25th! Another great Cinerama (Cinemiracle) production.

This is Cinerama!

Coming Sept. 25th to Blu Ray and DVD in a 60th Anniversary Edition! I was born ten years after this came to theatres so I never saw it on the big screen, or anything other than a few clips here and there. Looking forward to seeing it on my basenent wall with my Bose surround...
