NipkowDisc Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Thus far all I've seen tcm smilebox is How The West Was Won. What about the other Cinerama films like Ice Station Zebra? Who wouldn't want to see Rock's sub the Tigerfish smileboxed? I know I would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who wouldn't want to see Rock's sub the Tigerfish smileboxed? I know I would. A year or so ago, TCM showed a lot of smilebox Cinerama. I don't recall if ISZ was among them. To me, the best thing about ISZ is Patrick McGoohan. But, since it was Howard Hughes' favorite film, I guess I'd rather see it frownboxed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I've been watching tcm for years and have only seen HTWWW smileboxed. If the other films tcm has shown smileboxed were musicals then that would explain why I haven't seen them.

ValentineXavier Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 Geeze... please, someone help us out here. Find out when it was that TCM celebrated Cinerama, and give us a list of the films they showed. I'd do it myself, if I knew how. I think they showed ~ 6, and I guess some were musicals. I watched several. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
