this sounds so fun! I've not even heard of Cinerama before :/

I knew it existed (there's a bit on it in the film/photography exhibition at the NMM) but it was the first time I actually saw a film in that format.
BTW, if you're ever near Bradford, I highly recommend a visit to the National Media Museum.

I went to the photography museum last time i went - I have a friend who lives in Bradford, and keep meaning to revisit her. I shall ask that we go to the media museum next time, thank you!~X~

oh- turns out the photography museum is the media museum with a different name :) and it was indeed very cool!~X~

Indeed. The photography exhibition is downstairs and just a small part of the museum. There's currently a very interesting temporary exhibition on the first moving pictures and a completely new section called Life Online which is in two parts, the history of the internet bit in the foyer and the interactive bit on the 7th floor.
Of the permanent galleries, the TV and animation ones are the most interesting as they have huge amounts of original props.
