Princess Unveils Leonard Maltin Movie Club


Princess Cruises has teamed up with celebrated film critic Leonard Maltin to give passengers another way to enjoy movies onboard, by joining the exclusive Leonard Maltin Movie Club. Debuting fleetwide, Princess will showcase a new film selected by Leonard Maltin every month on its giant Movies Under the Stars screens. Each movie will be preceeded by a special video introduction from Mr. Maltin. After the movie is over, cruise staff will host a group discussion guided by questions and trivia from Mr. Maltin, where passengers can engage in thought-provoking discussion and gain greater perspective on the film.

Princess revolutionized movie-going at sea five years ago with its giant poolside movie screens. The giant Times Square-style movie screens are available on eight ships, and will be available fleetwide by 2011. Mr. Maltin is best known as the resident film buff on the popular entertainment news program, "Entertainment Tonight" where he has appeared since 1982. Mr. Maltin himself will be traveling aboard a Princess ship to host his new Movie Club at a date to be announced later.
