About Oppenheimer 70mm film projection:

70mm film offers a brighter, clearer image, with three times the resolution of standard projection formats, using the process of projecting light through celluloid to deliver clear images in rich analog color with state-of-the-art digital sound.

Oppenheimer was shot using a combination of 65mm and IMAX film. When presented on regular 70mm film, the sequences shot on 65mm are presented in their native format. The IMAX sequences have been optically reduced to 70mm film to produce a grain-free, ultra-high resolution image, cropped top and bottom to fill the wider frame. This process is photochemical, preserving the original analog color of the imagery and presented in a 2.2:1 aspect ratio. The sound is carried on a separate DTS disc to produce state-of-the-art 6-track digital sound.
