Unveiling Christopher Nolan’s Vision: Exclusive European Screening of “Oppenheimer” in Prague
What is 70mm film? As common people who don’t have any idea about film and enjoy it for entertainment purposes, 70mm film IMAX uses high quality and performance cameras which only adjust to the screen ratio of 1:43:1 aspect. Its frame consists of 15 perforations wide on 70mm film.
Prague’s Cinema City Flora IMAX is gearing up for an exclusive European screening of Christopher Nolan’s highly-anticipated film, “Oppenheimer,” in the director’s preferred full-frame 70mm IMAX format.
The cinema will be the only continental European location to showcase the movie in this format, adding to the excitement surrounding the film’s release. According to an official list on IMAX.com, “Oppenheimer” will be screened in 70mm IMAX at just 30 cinemas around the world, with the majority of them (25) located in North America. Three 70mm IMAX prints of the film will be shown in the UK, one in Australia, and the final one in Prague, at Cinema City Flora IMAX.
The Power of 70mm IMAX: A Cinematic Experience Like No Other
Director Christopher Nolan has always been vocal about his appreciation for the IMAX film format. He considered it the gold standard in all the formats of motion picture photography. With its unparalleled resolution, color, sharpness, and overall quality, he believes that IMAX film has the ability to bring images to life in a way that no other format can
While other IMAX cinemas across the continents will also screen “Oppenheimer,” only the 30 selected locations, including Prague’s Cinema City Flora, will present the film in 15 perf / 70mm film. This format allows the image to be blown up to a full-frame 1.43:1 aspect ratio, enabling audiences to experience the movie as the director intended.
Capturing Authenticity: Christopher Nolan’s Dedication to the Film
The significance of the 70mm IMAX print of “Oppenheimer” lies in the invention of a new film format specifically for the movie. Nolan and the cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema formed a collaboration with Kodak and Fotokem to come up with this creative new format in order to perfectly capture the authenticity of the film.
This format has to be introduced as the film includes both color and black-and-white footage, and previous films had retrofitted black-and-white footage for IMAX, which could have been better for the format.
“Oppenheimer” is a documentary film that centers around J. Robert Oppenheimer, an American scientist who played a crucial role in the development of the atomic bomb. Cillian Murphy played the lead role of Oppenheimer.
The film’s impressive ensemble cast includes Emily Blunt, Robert Downey Jr., Florence Pugh, Matt Damon, Rami Malek, and many others. Audiences in Prague can look forward to experiencing “Oppenheimer” in its full glory at Cinema City Flora IMAX from July 19. Ticket presales have already begun, and fans are encouraged to secure their seats for this unique cinematic event.
With the film projected in Christopher Nolan’s preferred 70mm IMAX format, the screening promises to be a thrilling and extraordinary experience for moviegoers, showcasing the director’s vision at its best.
