The Best of Cinerama was Merian C. Cooper’s last film work. We located the 7-channel sound of this title in Australia last year and also found a detailed continuity of the film in the old Cinerama files. Due to all of the past few years Cinerama restorations I have now been able to reconstruct this title exactly as Cooper and the editors had constructed it.
All the original travelogue sound efx. and music score was used but Lowell Thomas was brought in to record new narration for this1963 release.
Here is the trailer just finished for the film:
Lots of thanks have to go to John H. Mitchell who preserved the sound tracks and to Norman Karlin, one of the original Cinerama editors.
There is a good possibility that this will come out sometime in mid 2015 and I hope Russian Adventure and The Golden Head will also come out sometime in next year.
Thanks to all of you at Home Theater Forum for the support you have given to these Cinerama projects.
