January 2008 IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE – end of year success! Park Circus, UK released Frank Capra’s perennial Christmas favourite, IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE on 14 December 2007 on 2 new 35mm prints and digital cinema. By the end of the year, the film had made just over £170,000 ($340,000) from 17 film print bookings and 95 digital bookings. A new trailer and poster were created for the film (see www.parkcircus.com) and the box office success has proved once again the power of digital cinema. All congratulations to our colleagues at Park Circus! December 2007 Park Circus released the Bond film GOLDFINGER on 31 July 2007 on 136 screens in the UK thanks to digital cinema. The release was sponsored by the BBC and UK Film Council as part of their Summer of British Film so press coverage was high and the results impressive. The film took £34,000 ($68,000) on one day. The Bond fan sites reported that the superior quality of the digital image and 5.1 sound were factors that brought fans into the cinema for viewing a familiar title. THE SOUND OF MUSIC was released on 26 September 2007 on 128 screens, 125 of them digital. Again, the “one-day special” idea worked well and the film took £32,000 ($64,000). All three of these releases were programmed into a UK multiplex chain, Cineworld, who are willing to experiment with digital cinema on this “one-day special” idea. When the film works, they will bring it back for a second event. Hollywood Classics current digital line-up is as follows:
