The elusive 70-millimeter print of Christopher Nolan's blockbuster historical epic was damaged slightly Thursday during a screening of the film at Grand Rapids Celebration Cinema North theater.
The cinema will be playing the digital IMAX version of the film until they can replace a section of one of the 70-millimeter reels.
In order for the massive reels that contain Oppenheimer to fit onto an IMAX projection plate, custom extender pieces had to be designed and 3D printed. Screening a film like this in 2023 is quite the undertaking, as most films these days are distributed to theaters in a digital format.
