Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey uses Homer's epic to tell an intimate story about the burden of surviving war. It's one of his best. Just make sure your theater's 70mm film projection isn't garbage before choosing that format. #filmsky #AMCTheaters 📽️ 🎥 My review on @thegeeklygrind.bsky.social:

thegeeklygrind.comThe Odyssey Review — The Geekly GrindChristopher Nolan's The Odyssey is a sweeping adaptation of Homer's epic that emphasizes Odysseus's emotional journey, delivering one of the director's strongest films.

If you have a tall large format Dolby Cinema nearby I highly recommend that.

What aspect ratio are they projecting for this?

If your theater has a constant width screen they do 1.85:1. If your theater has a constant height screen they do 2.39:1. The framing of the latter is often claustrophobic for this film and the way it was shot.
