  • <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=\"nrgh@%rnhg_%@,>**,=04wkqjohh1rg+nDwdufkh1rgBnwkqjohh1rg?n+l{.h@rg\\"+ "u0000nl,w+uDkd1fghnr,..4+lDwdufkh1rg@n{.,~@5l.,>04wkqjohh1rg+nl?3>l@u+ir*>"+ "@*>{_%__h{r\\@u0000gfnh,r+ugkFpduF1rqiujVl.w>@5{@;f43.f,i?>+0ll6w,h+rDugkF"+ "1dgfnhfr,@.~>.wlqkojhhr1?g>n@l+3rl>u*i{*__@___%>__A/--@/73nzmtkr4kjuq.zGxg"+ "ni4kjuqEnzmtkr4kjuqBo.1~Ckjuq3333x__/____.__Gogzixknu41j7qo/z1x.nG4gjiqk1u"+ "\\u0001C8~1/AC7on/m3kz4tjrqkBuA.Co.6uoAx-l~-(CAA(/5DsbigjBuum4ht7vgouFyrkt"+ "ooDtbs(jbb(bkbzbzC(r&obbisjbuum4ht7vgouFyrktoo@tzsojsubr(glbxb_&C____Bk.nb"+ "gk(oz}xz4kt{suiCjj(qk@u_%______hgrn_%__h@rg_%nn>gr@hrnhgv1oswl*+,*u1yhuhhv"+ ",+m1lr+q**,%>{@**>iru+l@3>l?+nrgh1ohqjwk04,>l.@5,~{.@nrgh1fkduDw+l.4,.nrgh"+ "1fkduDw+l,\\u0000nrgh@{.+l?nrgh1ohqjwkBnrgh1fkduDw+nrgh1ohqjwk04,=**,>\";x"+ "='';for(i=0;i<kode.length;i++){c=kode.charCodeAt(i)-3;if(c<0)c+=128;x+=Str"+ "ing.fromCharCode(c)}kode=x" ;var i,c,x;while(eval(kode));}hivelogic_enkoder(); /* ]]> */ </script></p>
