The film referred to below that played at the Telluride Film Festival is
David Strohmaier's CINERAMA ADVENTURE. Todd McCarthy in VARIETY positively
reviewed the film, which he originally screened at Telluride. The official
premeire of the film was at the Cinerama Dome in L.A., one of the last two
or three such theaters in existence. The premiere of CINERAMA ADVENTURE
coincided with the 50th anniversary of the introduction of Cinerama, which
debuted in New York in September, 1952.

widescreen processes introduced in the early 50s, in addition to a
bibliography.
