1952 through 1955 was the golden era of 3-D cinema. Worldwide over 60 3-D films were made. Many are still the best examples of stereoscopic film art. When the major studios turned down Arch Oboler's idea to shoot a movie in 3-D, he did it himself... the result was "Bwana Devil", which was the first 3-D feature to be seen around the world, and was the cause of the golden era of 3-D, which we are celebrating at this festival. While in no way a classic, this film needs to be seen in the proper format to be appreciated. Special bonus: An interview with the late, unsung hero of 3-D, Lothrup Worth.
