    In the 50's the theatre installed a huge curved aluminium VistaVision
    screen. It was a one piece screen and had to be placed through the roof.
    Anyone who saw the premiere of Strategic Air Command on this screen will never forget the amazing sharpness and depth- the HD of its day.


    Were there curved Aluminium VistaVision screens?
