We wish the folks who run the Cinerama Dome in Hollywood would reopen that fine movie theater and we further wish they would resume their occasional screenings there of my favorite movie, It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World. That theater was literally built to show that film and seeing it there is the best way to see it.
There is no news about the Dome reopening…just a few rumors that aren't worth raising one's hopes for. But it is a fact that the Aero Theater in Santa Monica is showing my fave film in 70mm on Saturday, July 30 at 7:30 PM. Details and tickets are here. I have not been in a theater of any sort since The Pandemic descended upon us. This may be when I break my fast.
