SOUTH SEAS ADVENTURE
1958, Flicker Alley, 120 min, USA, Dir: Carl Dudley, Richard Goldstone, Francis D. Lyon, Walter Thompson, Basil Wrangell
The final travelogue produced by Cinerama to showcase its widescreen process sets sail to Hawaii, Tahiti, Fiji, New Zealand and Australia through five fictional vignettes. Beautifully restored from the original camera negative, the color footage of these island paradises is spectacular, and Orson Welles’ narration adds a wry wink to these tales of adventure and romance. You don’t want to miss the fashion, dance and music in this time capsule of midcentury dream vacations!

Here's the trailer for SOUTH SEAS ADVENTURE:

https://player.vimeo.com/video/116381992

The trailer and film will be presented in the "SmileBox" format which simulates a Cinerama projection in a non-Cinerama theatre.

Apparently there were some issues with the ticketing system over the weekend, so they've extended sales of the meal packages through tomorrow, Wed. 08/22 at 1pm.

Margot from the Cinematheque / Egyptian Theatre mentioned that a photographer from the LA Weekly will be there, so bust out your tiki finery and maybe accessorize with a great mug and you may show up in an LA Weekly slideshow!

For reference, here's their slideshow from last year's Tiki Oasis:
