Catch Spielberg Masterpiece 'Schindler's List' Remastered In Cinemas For A Limited Time!

Popcorn - News - 15 Jan 2019

To commemorate the 25th anniversary release of Steven Spielberg’s masterpiece Schindler’s List, one of the most significant endeavors in the history of cinema and winner of seven Academy Awards®, including Best Picture and Best Director, Universal Pictures will re-release the film with picture and sound digitally remastered—including in 4K, Dolby Cinema and Dolby Atmos—for a limited theatrical engagement from 24 January 2019, in cinemas across Singapore. 


It is the triumph of one man who made a difference and the drama of those who survived one of the darkest chapters in human history because of what he did. Meticulously restored from the original film negative in pristine high definition and supervised by Spielberg, Schindler’s List is a powerful story whose lessons of courage and faith continue to inspire generations.


On the heels of last year’s re-release of James Cameron’s Titanic in HDR, this event marks one of the very few times that a film of this magnitude and scope has been remastered in 4K, Dolby Cinema and Atmos. It provides a stunning experience on the big screen, to match the power of the film and its significant themes. This January, audiences can share the experience of a story we must never forget.


“It is difficult to believe that it’s been 25 years since Schindler’s List first arrived in theaters,” said Spielberg. “The true stories of the magnitude and tragedy of the Holocaust are ones that must never be forgotten, and the film’s lessons about the critical importance of countering hatred continue to reverberate today. I am honored that audiences will be able to experience the journey once again on the big screen.”  



Since 2005, the UN and its member states have held commemoration ceremonies to mark the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau and to honor the six million Jewish victims of the Holocaust and millions of other victims of Nazism on January 27, the day designated by the United Nations General Assembly as International Holocaust Remembrance Day. Thus, the re-release of this incredible true story, following the enigmatic Oskar Schindler, who saved the lives of more than 1,100 Jews during the Holocaust, during this period also serves as a timely reminder to reflect on the choices one can make to counter hatred. 


Singapore cinemas programming Schindler’s List 25th Anniversary include Golden Village VivoCityThe Cathay CineplexCathay Cineplex Cineleisure Orchard and The Projector.


Additional elements of the re-release include the new trailer, as well as another forthcoming re-release of the iconic film score by five-time Academy Award®-winning composer John Williams—on the soundtrack from La-La Land Records—which will include never-before-heard material. The remastered film will also be available in 4K HDR, Dolby Vision and Atmos on home-entertainment platforms subsequent to theatrical release.
