The 1984 supernatural comedy gets a full orchestral treatment at Reynolds Hall, where the film plays on a large HD screen while live musicians perform Elmer Bernstein's Academy Award-winning score in perfect sync. It's a different way to experience the story of three parapsychologists-turned-ghost catchers saving New York City from otherworldly threats – hearing every musical cue, from the eerie atmospheric moments to the triumphant theme, performed live adds a new dimension to scenes you probably already know by heart.
Reynolds Hall's grand setting, with its dramatic stage and full orchestra pit, provides the right atmosphere for this kind of movie concert experience. The live performance highlights how much Bernstein's music contributes to the film's blend of comedy and supernatural tension, from the quiet, unsettling moments in the library to the chaos of the Ghostbusters' first encounter with Slimer at the hotel.
