In this episode, Marc and Renee explore how film evolved in both sight and sound, and how the industry kept reinventing the moving image every time audiences drifted toward a glowing box at home.They walk through the widescreen battles of the 1950s, the triumph of magnetic sound and 70 mm spectacle, the rise of Dolby, the shift from mechanical projection booths to digital servers, and the invention of virtual production that blends cameras with giant LED volumes. Along the way, they share personal memories of revival houses, 70 mm double features, and the messy reality of transitioning a major theater chain into the digital era.The tools have changed, but the goal has always been the same. Cinema keeps searching for a new way to feel alive, even if the audience is not always as impressed as the engineers are.Join Renee and Marc as they discuss tech topics with a view on their nostalgic pasts in tech that help them understand today's challenges and tomorrow's potential. email us at
