Show Notes
Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey is undoubtedly this summer's blockbuster cinema experience. It's the first movie to be shot entirely with IMAX 70 mm film cameras, which have superior resolution and an aspect ratio much taller than most commercial cinemas. If you want to see it as the director intended, you need to see it at an IMAX theater, preferably one of the 25 in North America that are showing it on 70 mm film.
