Fort Lauderdale has Florida's only screen showing "The Odyssey" in 70mm IMAX

Context: Nolan's preferred presentation format can only be shown on 70mm IMAX screens, which offer the highest-quality image and sound from the original film.

• He previously showed some of his films in 70mm — like "Oppenheimer" — but "Odyssey" was the first narrative film to be shot entirely using IMAX cameras, according to IMAX.
• "IMAX is the best film format that was ever invented. It's the gold standard and what any other technology has to match up to, but none have," Nolan said in a press release

Nolan fans are going bonkers over it.

• Some fans bought tickets a year ago, others delayed their pregnancies or went on cross-country road trips to see the film in its proper format, Variety reports.

How it works: A standard film strip is 35mm. A 70mm print is physically larger, allowing for higher image resolution.

• IMAX screens also display a taller image, letting audiences see more of the frame.

• Normally, filmmakers will only film parts of their movie on IMAX since the cameras for it are bulky and expensive.

The other side: Don't worry — you can still check out "The Odyssey" at movie theaters. You just won't see the film as Nolan intended.

• Moviegoers can see the film in IMAX digital and large-screen formats developed by theater chains, like Regal RPX and Cinemark XD.
• It'll also be available in Dolby Cinema, a high-quality film experience that generated millions in 2025 because of fan demand.
