The Hollywood Scene By VERV0N SC0TT
tnited Press Writer
ion
Hollywood 'I? A brand new
motion picture process, modest
lv "amd "Cinemiracle." was
unveiled this
week. It's a
C i nerama
like gimmick
that over
whelms audi
ences with
sheer bigness.
C inemiracle
provides more
three - dimen-
Ternon Scott sional effect
than Toda-AO, VisitaVision or
Cinema-Scope, and improves
some of the technical facets of
Cinerama.
A three-camera process requir
ing a trio of projectors and spe
cial sound equipment, Cinemira
cle is the best of big screen ef
forts to date.
Demonstration of the jumbo
process was presented in the Mel
rose Theater, a defunct popcorn
palace which folded when tele
vision stomped onto the scene.
No Repetition, He Hopes
In a speech preceding the show
ing, Elmer C. Rhoden, president
of National Theaters, Inc., look
ed around the shabby theater and
said, "We hope that Cinemiracle
can prevent this sort of thing
from happening in the future."
As developer of the new meth
od Rhoden claims his machine
affords wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling
viewing for the first time in
movie history.
"The screen can go as high and
wide as a theater allows," he
told the Hollywood press corps.
"There's no fixed ratio of height
to width."
The experimental screen in
Hollywood is 24 feet high, 63
feet wide. A demonstration
screen in New York is 34 by 81
feet and 16 feet deep. Projec
tion covers a field of 146 degrees
wide and 55 degrees high ap
proximately that of human vi
sion, which is 160-60 degrees.
Viewers "In" Picture
Cinemiracle gives a clear pic
ture from any vantage in the
theater no blurring or distor
tion. Viewers really feel "in"
the picture, a discomfitting phen
omenon at times.
Test films included hair-raising
rides up and down San Fran
cisco's hilly streets, a wild trip
through Philadelphia on a hook
and ladder fire truck and a crash
dive via submarine. Whenever
the camera plunges unexpected
ly it takes the viewer's stomach
with it.
"Falling attendance and busi
ness setbacks in motion pictures
resulted from not putting enough
money back into research," Rho
den says. "When we sent letters
to producers explaining our new
development only Jack Warner
gave us any encouragement."
Because of his interest Warn
ers will film the. second feature
using Cinemiracle. It is fittingly
titled "The Miracle."
The first picture is Louis de
Rochemont's " Cinemeracle Ad
venture," a travelogue epic film
ed around the voyage of a Nor
weigian windjammer and her
crew, scheduled for release next
March.
So optimism again flows in the
jaundiced veins of movietown,
but the big-wigs are reminded
that a good movie with top stars
will make money no matter what
size the screen.
French Newspapers
Criticize Pineau
Paris HP) French news
papers scored Foreign Minister
Christian Pineau today and said
France came out on the short
end in his talks with Secretary
of State John Foster Dulles.
Three top-circulation dailies.
"Le Figaro," "Parisien Libere"
and "L'Aurore," all normally
pro American, said the results
of the Washington conference
were "slim" and "disappoint
ing." The leftwing "Combat" and
the Socialist "Paris Journal"
ruefully described the agree
ments reached as "limited" and
of "relative success."
Before he left here earlier
this week Pineau said that no
matter how successful his talks
with Dulles turned out they
could not soothe French public
anger over U. S. and British
shipments of arms to Tunisia.
The government's position in
the dispute will be outlined next
week. The National Assembly's
Foreign Affairs committee has
asked Premier Felix Gaillard to
appear before it then and give
his views on the situation.
In London, British Foreign
Secretary Selwyn Lloyd and
Conservative members of Parlia
ment met in a secret session
Wednesday night to discuss the
arms to Tunisia dispute.
TWO FOR ONE
Niagara Falls, N.Y. (Ut Leon
Schultz has a hunting tale that
is hard to top. The 36-year-old
bowman killed two cock pheas
ants wtih one arrow from his 40
pound diamond bow. He was
practicing in his backyard when
he noticed the pheasants, one
partially obscured behind the
other, sitting in the grass. He let
fly and the arrow pierced both
pheasants.
