Coppola's 'Megalopolis' to return to theaters on a recurring schedule

Francis Ford Coppola's 'Megalopolis' will return to theaters again later this month, following a limited run in July that was not a one-time event. The film is now set to screen in theaters on an ongoing, regular basis going forward.

IMAX theaters use taller screens and unique cameras to reshape films, not just enlarge them

IMAX auditoriums use distinct 1.90:1 or 1.43:1 aspect ratios for digital and film projection, resulting in screens that are notably taller and squarer than standard cinemas, some reaching nearly 60 feet tall for 70mm showings. Filmmakers like Christopher Nolan note that shooting for IMAX means capturing more visual information and carefully planning framing so movies translate across different screen shapes, rather than simply blowing up existing footage.
