My wife and I went to see Terrence Malick's new movie, The New World, in downtown Boston at the Loews in Boston Commons. The movie was simply unbelieveable. And the theater...oh my god...it was amazing. The first weekend the film was open it was playing on their "premium" system (the best theater in the house, impressive considering there are 20 stadium style theaters in the one place).
I could not imagine a better experience to sell the power of cinema and technology--the perfect fusion of art and science. Malick is a master filmmaker of the first caliber. He makes films that could only exist as films (the 35 minutes of talking would make a flimsy book) and this system honored everything that he did with a fidelity that was simply stunning.
So, has anyone else had a notable experience--the best in cinema and the best in sound and video technology?
