克里斯托弗·诺兰执导的《奥德赛》7月16日上映,该片成为首部完全采用IMAX摄影机拍摄的影片[1]。布拉格拥有全球仅有的41块70毫米IMAX屏幕之一,因此吸引了来自欧洲约15个国家的观众专程前往观影[1]。截至周一,已有22000名欧洲观众到布拉格观看这部影片[1]。
欧盟内拥有70毫米IMAX屏幕的城市极其稀少,仅有布拉格、蒙彼利埃和布鲁塞尔三处[1]。布拉格的电影院为满足观影需求,每天安排4至5场放映,其中大部分场次已满座[1]。此外,为确保影片顺利放映,IMAX胶片每次运送都需特殊处理——这卷胶片总重约300公斤,长18公里,被分段运送至放映地[1]。
Christopher Nolan's "The Odyssey," the first feature film shot entirely with IMAX cameras, has drawn approximately 22,000 European viewers to Prague as of Monday to experience the film on one of the world's most exclusive screens.[1] Prague's cinema houses one of only 41 70mm IMAX screens globally, making it a destination for cinephiles traveling from roughly 15 European countries.[1] Within the European Union, only Prague, Montpellier, and Brussels offer access to this format, intensifying the appeal of the Prague venue.[1]
The cinema is operating 4-5 screenings daily, with most showtimes selling out.[1] The logistics of screening the film underscore its rarity: the IMAX film stock weighs approximately 300 kilograms, stretches 18 kilometers in length, and must be transported in segments to the theater.[1] Since the film's release on July 16, the Prague location has become a pilgrimage site for European audiences seeking to view "The Odyssey" in its most immersive theatrical format.[1]
