The prints were in good shape, though this was long before restorations began happening. They only had a 90 minute version of King Kong, which was unusual, since that movie was restored in the 70s. I am sure most of the attendees did not notice, though. It was a fun night, full of dinosaurs and mayhem.

The Lost World screening
Way back in the olden times I went to see two movies. I read about them in the local newspaper and could walk to the theater. I think I still have the program guide to this somewhere, and I may search for it for an upcoming project. They screened both The Lost World and King Kong, which was just great. They had a few of Willis O'Brien's silent movies to show as well. A live orchestra played during The Lost World. That was amazing as well.
