Sadly, the “new” (October 7) release of A Midnight Clear does not appear to be widescreen (at least not the copy I received from Amazon). This may simply have been a website error on Amazon’s part. If anyone knows differently, or has actually seen a copy of AMC labeled “widescreen” somewhere, please drop us a line at sinisefans @ sinisefans.com. Sorry to be the bearer of sad news.

* Exciting DVD news! At long last, A Midnight Clear will be released on DVD on June 4, 2002. We will post the pre-order link as soon as the title hits Amazon’s computers. On July 9, a director’s cut of Impostor will be released. Click here to pre-order.

* Gary will be filiming The Human Stain with Nicole Kidman and Anthony Hopkins this spring. Visit the IMDB to learn more about the film. We will post more information when it becomes available.

* More cool news! Apollo 13 will be returning to an IMAX theater near you late this summer. Unlike previous screenings of theatrical films on IMAX screens, which simply blew up images projected from a conventional 35 mm negative, a new process has been developed that is said to yield much better results by converting the film’s negative to a 70 mm IMAX format. Those who have seen the results are reportedly quite impressed! The prospect of enjoying this wonderful movie in the theater again, much less in the fabulous widescreen format, is really something to look forward to.
