In an exclusive interview with The Associated Press, director Christopher Nolan offers a guide to his favourite formats, explaining why it matters and even where he likes to sit so that audiences don't feel like they need a film school degree (or one in theoretical physics) before settling on a theatre.
It's no secret that Christopher Nolan made " Oppenheimer " to be seen on the big screen. But not all big screens are created equal.
In a film about about J. Robert Oppenheimer, the theoretical physicist who oversaw the development of first atomic bomb during World War II, this will be especially pivotal in viewing the Trinity Test, the first detonation of a nuclear weapon. Nolan and his effects teams recreated the blast, with all its blinding brilliance.
On a technical level, the IMAX film resolution is almost 10 times more than a 35mm projector and each frame has some 18,000 pixels of resolution versus a home HD screen that has 1,920 pixels.The 5mm difference goes back to when that extra space on the film had to be reserved for the soundtrack. With digital sound, that's unnecessary and it is "purely a visual enhancement," Nolan explained.
But, Nolan said, "from a creative point of view, what we've found over the years is that there's no compromise to composition."The IMAX cameras are just too loud for dialogue heavy scenes, but Nolan is optimistic about the new cameras being developed.Some of "Oppenheimer" is presented in black and white for a very specific story reason.
