Cinamascope killed show business!

                                How? Well, if you went backstage at many of Americas finest (or poorest) movie houses you would find
                            a beautiful stage! Totally unusable! Why? Because of those huge pipe framed canvas covered unmovable
                            Cinamascope screens.

                                You see, in the good old days (before Cinamascope) the movie screen could be easily raised out of sight
                            in order to have a live stage show. But then Cinamascope came along and they built those damn screens
                            for it that couldn't be moved!

                            No less an authority than Harry Blackstone, Sr. told me this. He should know, if anyone in America should!
