Author Topic: White Screen Edward Jurich Master Film Handler Posts: 305 From: Las Vegas USA Registered: Jul 2003 posted 08-21-2003 09:31 AM                     During the last show, I was outside helping with the sign change. I checked the platter and there was at least 20 minutes left. So there I am doing some respacing on the marquee and my helper comes out of the theater saying "sounds like the movie is ending" I walk in and there is a white screen. This is kinda embarrassing as this is a single screen theater, has curtains, curtain lights and several auditorium lights. The presentation is usually much more eye pleasing as the curtain closes on the end credits.
