The American Cinematheque announced their programming for the restored Egyptian Theatre, including the Ultra Cinematheque 70 Fest.
The Big Picture One of Los Angeles’s most revered film locations, the iconic Egyptian Theater, is all set to not only reclaim its place in Hollywood's illustrious history as it was announced earlier this year, but American Cinematheque has also announced to kick things off with a 70mm film festival titled Ultra Cinematheque 70: Hollywood from November 10 to 21. This festival will feature rare 70mm presentations of classic and popular films.
Grant Moninger, recently promoted to Artistic Director, will lead the dynamic film programming team. The team, known for curating over 1,400 screenings annually at the AC’s Aero and Los Feliz 3, will independently program Friday, Saturday, and Sunday features at the theater. The programming is expected to be a rich mix and will offer something for everyone — timeless classics, contemporary masterpieces, it will have it all.
Earlier this year, both Netflix and American Cinematheque, in collaboration, had announced the theater’s return following an extensive three-year restoration with a special screening of David Fincher’s film, The Killer, followed by a Q&A with the filmmaker, on November 9, 2023. It was also announced that Netflix will also premiere a documentary short film about the history of the Egyptian Theatre.
