3 Days of 3-D - Suffern, NY - February 27-29, 2004

Three Days of 3- D lafayette Theater in Suffern NY - February 27-29, 2004

For those of us who couldn't commute to the festival earlier this year on the Left Coast. I live about an hour from this theater.

 

That is great. I urge those of you who live in this area to attend. It will really blow your mind (as they used to say).

 

For those interested, the schedule and ticket prices are posted here:
Big screen classics 3-d fest

I plan to see Creature from the Black Lagoon, Dial M for Murder, and possibly House of Wax and Inferno.

 

See every one you can, while you can!

 

thanks, Gary. I am very tempted, but it is playing at 10PM on Sunday night, and I have to get up for work the next morning. The theater is about an hour away, so that means I probably won't be home until 1PM. But, who knows? I may go anyway.

 

thanks - but I don't think that I can squeeze everything in

I'd also like to see "Doom Town" (short subject shown with Inferno), but I don't think I can make it. I just bought the new Viewmaster set "Atomic Tests in 3-D". It's pretty cool

 

I was there Saturday for Creature From the Black Lagoon and Dial M for Murder (although, I'm ashamed to admit that I fell asleep during most of the first half )
They had a crystal clear copy of the Canadian short Around is Around. The Warner Brothers Lumberjack Rabbit with Bugs Bunny was a little dark, but despite everything that I have read about it, I thought that the stereo effects were very good! I almost missed the "springing" WB badge though!

It's a beautifully restored theater. Where else can you hear a Wurlitzer between shows instead of those cheesy in-theater samplers that they play in multi-plexes? The owner introduced each film and described the print quality of each one. It was also gratifying to see families there with children of varying ages who were all enjoying the 3-D Creature!

I really wanted to go see the Sunday 10PM show (It Came From Outer Space ), but I'm an hour from Suffern, and I did have to get up for work this morning!

They haven't posted the new schedule on the Lafeyette Theater website yet, but they had it posted in the lobby. Lawrence of Arabia will be on the big screen this week!
