This definitive book is the third in an important series of studies about the History of Widescreen in the Cinema from 1927 to 1956. It provides a complete and comprehensive account of the remarkable commercial success achieved by CinemaScope in 1954. It includes a complete and extensively detailed filmography of the 36 films made in CinemaScope and first shown during 1954, with full details of each of the Hollywood studios involved. Contemporary reviews of these 36 films, as published at the time by trade journals and movie fan magazines, are also provided. This book also covers the first films made in the two rival widescreen systems in 1954 to CinemaScope ? VistaVision and SuperScope. Uniquely, most of this detailed information has never been published in book form.
