Christopher Nolan’s films have always been the perfect exhibits for IMAX due to their large canvasses and epic treatment of the story. Nolan has been a huge proponent of IMAX ever since he used them in The Dark Knight and has been increasingly using them in his films. His latest Oscar nominee Oppenheimer seemed to have pushed the technology to its limit as it became the first film to have black and white images in IMAX.
While Nolan’s films have always been marketed as theatrical experiences that one has to ‘feel rather than understand’, he has also mentioned how the experience becomes much more authentic when seen on a 70mm, fifteen-perf IMAX screen.

Christopher Nolan deserves to win the Oscar for his epic biopic Oppenheimer, not only for his brilliant filmmaking but also for all his contributions to cinema. Nolan’s film singlehandedly revived one art that took backstage when digital filmmaking became popular. It was the Interstellar director who made IMAX popular among cine-goers and gave back jobs to many IMAX projectionists with his latest film.

Kodak, the famous photography company, nearly discontinued their IMAX films, before Nolan interfered. The Tenet director pushed for the IMAX 1570 mm format in his films, while IMAX chief quality officer David Keighley convinced Kodak to keep making it. Nolan saw the future in it and Oppenheimer has now shown exactly what that looks like.
