In addition to our first-run Main Attractions, we present special programming throughout the year. Our special programs are generally one-time events and include a diverse collection of independent and classic films, film lectures, works from local filmmakers, and stage productions from Europe’s top performing arts venues. This spring, we are excited to highlight our new projection equipment with a series entitled THIS IS DIGITAL CINEMA.
| THIS IS DIGITAL CINEMA | |
 |
The movie industry has experienced a seismic shift - the most significant since the conversion to sound. For over 100 years, film was projected exclusively on film stock. No longer. Movies are now presented digitally. Our new digital equipment not only provides crisp, beautiful picture and audio, but allows us to show you previously unavailable programs. We can present new restorations of classics as well as movies shot in 3D. Join us this Spring as we explore this exciting new world with the special series THIS IS DIGITAL CINEMA. We have a separate THIS IS DIGITAL CINEMA booklet available, which includes more details about the films, as well as essays, which provide more insight into our new digital world. |
