Christopher Nolan’s take on The Odyssey has caused quite the stir and is already one of the most talked-about films of the year. Whether that’s because it’s the first film to be shot entirely on IMAX cameras, or translator Emily Wilson’s damning review of Nolan’s interpretation of the classic text.
While I have booked to see the epic on an IMAX 70mm screen in September, I just could not wait to watch so I headed to my local cinema in the meantime. Despite the smaller aspect ratio, I was still blown away by the beautiful visuals and emotive score.
