Geeky 'Shooting for IMAX' Featurette for Nolan's 'Oppenheimer' Movie

"IMAX, for me, is a portal into a level of immersion you can't get from other formats." A new behind-the-scenes featurette is out for Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer, opening in theaters worldwide in July. This video focuses on "shooting for IMAX" and Nolan's innovative use of the large format cameras, shooting on 65mm for as much of the film as possible. They even invented 65mm B&W camera stock to use to shoot it properly in B&W! Crazy and nerdy - I love it. Oppenheimer tells the story of American scientist J. Robert Oppenheimer and his role in the development of the atomic bomb, working at the Los Alamos Laboratory on the Manhattan Project in the 1940s. The big cast features Cillian Murphy, with Emily Blunt as "Kitty" Oppenheimer, Matt Damon as Leslie Groves, Robert Downey Jr. as Lewis Strauss, Florence Pugh as Jean Tatlock, as well as Rami Malek, Benny Safdie, Josh Hartnett, Dane DeHaan, Jack Quaid, Matthew Modine, Alden Ehrenreich, Jason Clarke, David Krumholtz, David Dastmalchian, and many others. This video also features DP Hoyte Van Hoytema, Nolan's right hand man, discussing his techniques and how much work they put into making sure every movie looks just perfect.
