You probably know by now that were screening INTERSTELLAR in 35mm beginning Tuesday. If youre not super nerdy about theatrical presentation formats, though, you may be scratching your head, wondering why. Heres the answer - because Christopher Nolan asked us to. We pride ourselves as being a different kind of movie theater - a theater that bows to the whims of the filmmaker above the requests of the bean counters or suit and tie mafia. If Christopher Nolan prefers we present his movie on film - and theres a reasonable way to do it - were going to do it. The debate between 35mm and digital is a tricky one and theres not a clear answer - at least not in my eyes. In order to give you a bit of insight into the war between formats, I programmed a free screening of SIDE BY SIDE, a great documentary from producer Keanu Reeves in which he explores the debate by talking to a variety of filmmakers, including Christopher Nolan. Come and learn a bit more about the struggle between film and 35mm and make up your own mind on whether youd prefer to see INTERSTELLAR in 35mm or in digital. Tickets to SIDE BY SIDE are absolutely free and can be picked up at the box office but if you have a specific seat youd really prefer to sit in, you can save that seat by buying a $5 food and beverage voucher here: bit.ly/1wWw3jm
