History of Cinema Part 1:<br />
From the Magic Lantern to 70mm, 5.30pm<br />
History of Cinema Part 2:<br />
3D, 7.30pm<br />
In a two part programme we cover the<br />
journey of cinematic presentation<br />
from its pre-history of the magic<br />
lantern show through the birth<br />
of the movies in the 1890s<br />
to the explosion of the<br />
Hollywood system.<br />
Taking in the struggles against<br />
the emergence of television, the<br />
ways in which the movies tried<br />
to re-invent itself from Cinerama,<br />
CinemaScope to 70mm and the<br />
coming of IMAX, to the rediscovery of<br />
3D and modern digital presentations. This<br />
has been a story of technology matched with<br />
showmanship forever chasing the public’s desire<br />
for greater thrills and entertainment.<br />
The programme will be illustrated with sections of<br />
features and short films that illustrate the ingenuity<br />
and imagination of filmmakers over 120 years.<br />
