The Telluride Film Festival is widely seen as a key stepping-stone on the journey towards awards season with the screening of eight Best Picture winners in the last decade. This edition was no different with major world premieres of highly anticipated titles such as James Mangold’s Ford v Ferrari, Tom Harper’s The Aeronauts, Ken Norton’s Motherless Brooklyn and Joshua and Ben Safdie’s Uncut Gems.
Through a long-term partnership with a goal of creating extraordinary film experiences, Meyer Sound and Telluride have collaborated to bring a custom designed Meyer Sound cinema sound system to three of the festival major venues, including the 650 seat Werner Herzog Theatre, converted each year from a hockey rink; the Galaxy, converted from a middle-school gymnasium and The Nugget, originally built in 1892 as a bank and converted to a movie theatre in 1935. The Nugget is Telluride’s only year-round movie theater and through this partnership, residents will now have the extraordinary cinema sound experience year-round through the permanent installation of the system.
