Filmmaker Quentin Tarantino has officially taken over management duties at Los Angeles' iconic New Beverly cinema.
The Pulp Fiction moviemaker purchased one of California's oldest movie houses in 2007 to save the property from redevelopment, and seven years later he is now in charge of the cinema's programming.
Tarantino's first order of business is to remove the theatre's digital projector in favour of the traditional screening of 35mm films.
He tells Deadline, "The big thing about what's going to change now that I'm taking the theatre over is, from here on in the New Beverly is only showing film. That's it. No digital. If something's playing at the New Beverly, if we're showing it, it's on film."
Renovations are currently underway at the venue, which is a single-screen 228-seat cinema. It is slated to reopen in October (14).
