The Most Stressful Time of Year in Madison and I Don't Mean Taxes

The box office opened today, and it's time make your picks for the Wisconsin Film Festival, April 2-5, before the films you really want to see sell out. But how to know what you really want to see? More than a 100 films in four days -- features, documentaries, shorts; foreign and domestic; restorations and premieres. Most will never be shown in theaters in Madison again. Make the wrong choice, and you lose your chance to see the neglected masterpiece, the gem everyone will be talking about later. Stressful, yes, but exciting, too. The online program guide is well organized, has lots of information, and makes online ordering easy. There's also a box office in the UW Memorial Union. Advance sales close April 1. After that a limited number of tickets are available at the screenings, but don't count on being able to get into the popular choices without an advance ticket.

Although we use the website for ordering and getting more information (and color), there's nothing like skimming the black and white print program guide distributed in advance by Isthmus for a quick overview. It's part of the ritual.

El Capitan, 6838 Hollywood Boulevard, Hollywood, CA 90028, United States.

The El Capitan originally opened as a legitimate playhouse , the theatre was built by prominent Los Angeles developer Charles E. Toberman. Toberman was the first to see the potential of a mixed use retail and theatre district on Hollywood Boulevard that was largely residential and agricultural at the time. The theatre opened to live performances May 3, 1926 with "Charlot's Revue", a song and dance variety show starring Jack Buchanan, Gertrude Lawrence and Beatrice Lillie. Rave reviews called the El Capitan "Hollywood's New Temple of Spoken Drama" and one of the most palatial structures in America.

In 1991, the former Paramount Theater was reopened by Disney and Pacific Theaters following a glorious restoration of this Hollywood gem situated across the street from Graumann's Chinese Theatre. Disney uncovered the original walls that were covered up with plaster and restored the El Capitan to its original splendor. The exterior is Spanish Colonial and the interior is East Indian. The theater seats 1,550. As the flagship theater of the Disney Studio empire, it is part of the Pacific Theaters circuit of which Disney owns a large stake. Every major animated release from Walt Disney Pictures Animation premieres here complete with a live stage show and more. The theater was the first in the United States to announce an online movie ticketing and printing system.

Heading up the stairs towards Toho Cinemas which first started off being Virgin Cinemas.
Order your tickets online at the Toho site and pick up on the evening.
When I first came to Japan, they didn't have any online booking and one had to wait outside the cinema and rush in for a good seat. Remember waiting about 3 hours to watch one of the Harry Potter movies.
