I saw it at the Roxy. I was 6. My mom wanted to walk out because it was a small screen in black and white. Then it happened...Cinemiracle began.
WINDJAMMER...became my mom's and my favorite film. We played the soundtrack LP so much , we wore it out and bought another one. "While Kari waits for me....."

Ken, you were fortunate to see the great Roxy Theatre in NYC only a year or two before it was demolished. I would have loved to have seen that grand 6000 seat movie palace. Though when they put the new screen in for Cinemiracle, they did some damage to the auditorium and proscenium.

If you have any stories about visiting the Roxy, please send me a note.

I’m currently going through the review copy and hope to have a formal review published as soon as time permits, but I just wanted to quickly say that the quality here, both of the main feature itself and bonus materials, is outstanding. I’m astounded by the quality of what I’m seeing here.

P.S. The film includes vintage footage of Puerto Rico around the 48 minute mark, including the Caribe Hilton hotel where my wife-to-be, our friends and family stayed during our wedding - we picked that location because it had a wonderful, classic and classy, feel to it - it was fantastic to see nearly 60 year old film footage of these beautiful locations. And being there in person did actually seem as if we had just walked into the film. So I will treasure this particular disc a little bit extra because of that connection.

Their website is doing a $27.95 each for both Windjamer 2017 restoration and This is Cinerama 2017 Restoration - Limited Time but up as of this writing - shipping is extra but they have the Media Mail option ...
