First Motion
Picture In New
SIS"

Another milestone in the pro-
gress of motion picture entertain
ment came with Cinemascope S.
as presented in Rodgers and
as presented in Rodgers-Hammer-
STEMS Carousel More than your
eyes have ever seen before on the
motion picture screen. Carousel
was the first motion picture
filmed in this new process -
Cinemascope SIS. Here are some
facts about Cinemascope SIS: 1t
is richer, deeper, clearer and
carries four times more photo
graphic information than regu-
lar Cinemascope. The images
are radiantly bright and sharp.
The backgrounds are as clearly
in focus as the fairgrounds. The
illusion of depth is breath-tak-
ing. Every seat becomes the per-
feet sea.
At a recent demonstration ex-
hibitors of motion picture thea
tiers were highly impressed by the
high quality of the new Cinema
scope SIS. There is wonderful
depth - not only in closeups
of individuals but in group Sc
quences. In one of the scenes,
Gordon MacRae, the star of Car
ousel, is shown seated on a stool
polishing some heavenly stars.
There was a gasp from the ex-
hibtors as the scene was projected
on the screen. The figure was SO
rounded, the depth so clearly de-
fined that il looked as if the fig
ure actually was on the stage
and not on the screen. 1t was
SD without glasses"
Audiences throughout the coun-
try have marveled at this new
Cinemascope SIS and when you
see this motion picture, Carousel,
in Cinemascope SIS at the Centre
Theatre starting Tuesday, June
IL we feel that you will be high
ly impressed with this new pro-
cess and with the motion picture
Carousel.
