Thanks so much for responding to me Wayne_j. I'm I'm so glad to hear the film is being shown properly! I can't wait for the dates in November. Might have to see this more than once. :-)

I'm in Las Vegas, and I see we have screenings of this coming in November as well. I have always wanted to see this on the big screen. Can anyone tell me how the intermission is handled at the screenings? Are there instructions for the theater to stop the film for the break, or do we skip it...

I saw it at the South Point in Las Vegas, bryan4999. The idea of seeing these Cinemark and Fathom movies always exceeds the reality. Why are mono dcps being sent out?

The screening yesterday was nowhere near 4k quality to my eyes.

I saw it today at a theater in Las Vegas, and there was a mono soundtrack! Is this the way it's being sent out from Fathom Events? So disappointed today. Did everyone else get mono? People also stumbled out when the intermission card came on, and then came back in talking during the 2nd act...

Where's Charley with Ray Bolger. I heard a dvd was being planned for this title, then nothing came of it. Does anyone know anything about the release?

I think it's time for the existing "roadshow" version of South Pacific to have a restoration. The technology must exist for this film to have a cohesive look and sound. I'm surprised this is being released on dvd again with just a new cover. It seems we don't have all of the footage from the...

Yes that was a typo Techman. I meant 35. I stand corrected. And I will send a complaint letter Jose. Thanks for the suggestion. I saw Cinemark's showing of West Side Story at another theater in town and it was correct. This theater happens to be the only theater in town to show these "fests"...

Thank you so much Peter and Allen for clearing that up for me. I'm not a film expert, and needed someone to comment on this. I was so excited to finally see Hello Dolly in the movie theater! As it was intended to be seen. What a shame.

I just did a little research here online and found Hello Dolly!, and Oklahoma! were both shown with mono tracks with 33mm prints when released. But...with the blu-ray discs of both with surround sound, and the tracks existing, why give us mono? Just laziness?

At the end of the letter, I was offered free tickets to another movie. I would really just rather see the film they claim to present in correct presentation. I don't believe any of these films were originally shown in mono. I wonder if it's Cinemark that screwed up, or if it was the specific...

I live in Las Vegas too, and was at the screening of Hello Dolly! on Saturday. I was surprised at the sound too, so I wrote a letter to the Cinemark customer service dept. This is their response. "Thank you for taking the time to share your most recent experience at the South Point 16 Theatre. I...

The price of the box set on Amazon has gone down yet again. It is now $110.99. I'm waiting for one more drop because I already own South Pacific and Sound of Music.

Bruce, haineshisway. Your posts are the best. Thank you.

On the sd dvd, there is blue in Anna's hair piece.
