I just had the very rare opportunity to watch a like new 70mm print of 2001 A Space Odyssey

The nationally recognized Hollywood Theatre was showing 2001 in 70mm, and the projectionist/head programmer for the theater, Dan Halsted, in his introductory speech told us that the print was of unusually high quality. Anyone else in Portland get to attend? They're having a 70mm extravaganza in celebration of the theater's 90th anniversary, and are showing 2001, Lawrence of Arabia, West Side Story, and Aliens.

I'm also adding a link to a couple of pictures I took of the marquee and recently restored façade as well as the fake monolith they set up outside the front door. http://ift.tt/29l2J2b
