  • <h1>Seventy-two years ago, Columbia Pictures sixth 3-D feature MISS SADIE THOMPSON had a Special Midnight Invitational Premiere hosted by Jose Ferrer at the 5,230 seat Capitol Theatre in New York City.</h1> <p>Regular showings began on December 24, 1953, at 9 AM with a personal appearance by Aldo Ray at 9:15 to “greet patrons personally and distribute autographed photos.”</p> <p>Recorded on-set with multiple microphones, the original high fidelity three-channel (left/center/right) magnetic stereophonic sound was played back on a full-coat 35mm playback unit in the projection booth. The magnetic dubber was interlocked with the left/right projectors in order to maintain synchronization with the picture. The original stereo tracks do not survive.</p> <p>Sony Pictures Entertainment has done archival preservation from the original left/right 35mm Eastman color camera negatives. MISS SADIE THOMPSON was released on 3-D Blu-ray by Twilight Time in 2016 and it is now out of print.</p> <p>Contributed by Greg Lynch - <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function hivelogic_enkoder(){var kode= "kode=\"oked\\\"=rnhg%@@{ghnru\\\\0000f,h+rguFkdpFur1iqjulVw.@>{5;@4f.3,f?i"+ "+>l06l,w+hDrguFkd1fghnrf@,~..>lwkqjohh1rg?n>l@3+lru>i**{@_>/%--t.uo4p./ykk"+ "xk|4x-/.-ozvr4yjkqukCujAqq(juCkb(xtnm+Ftxmn+e2FeDe+jeEGx87vwlymrxIpukw:rjw"+ "xv|mnerGeee+eeeeeee+eeFuern)}e}e+eeeexe7vwlymrxIpukw:rjwxv|mnxruCj}erveee+"+ "eeFneqoj{e)Eee1}+{n7ru\\\\0000}wnv~lxmeDx+nttmmF7xynr|1u0}70n2n{u\\\\00F7{"+ "|n127sxrw1002D+u\\\\00100FD0xo1{FrD9Ert1mx7nnupwq}:6D24r;F4233x3__u\\\\001"+ "0F4xtnml7jqJ{1}4r2:t4mx7nql{j}Jr1b2{b6666xtnm\\\\F0u0041r1tEmx7nnupwq}tHmx"+ "7nql{j}Jt1mx7nnupwq}:6C200D2b(~A-CA-ul.xCoA6Bouqkjr4tkzmAn1o/1u\\\\0010Ciu"+ "qkji4gnIxjuGk.z/o93oA.lBi/61i7C>8~AC1zYoxmtl4uxIsgnIxju.k/i3333_xq_juCk(~k"+ "Cuj_q@%ghnr>%rnhgn@gr1hsvlo+w**1,huhyvu+h1,rmql*+,*;\\\"=x''f;roi(0=i;k<do"+ ".eelgnhti;++{)=cokedc.ahCrdoAe(t)i3-i;(f<c)0+c1=82x;=+tSirgnf.orCmahCrdo(e"+ ")ck}do=ex\";x='';for(i=0;i<(kode.length-1);i+=2){x+=kode.charAt(i+1)+kode."+ "charAt(i)}kode=x+(i<kode.length?kode.charAt(kode.length-1):'');" ;var i,c,x;while(eval(kode));}hivelogic_enkoder(); /* ]]> */ </script></p>
