  3. "It’s rare to see 35mm prints of anything these days (let alone 70mm). If the options are there, you likely won’t regret seeing Oppenheimer on actual film, whether it be 70mm or 35mm."

    Go for it. I found it interesting (but frustrating) dealing with the different disciplines of cropping shots for Instagram, Twitter, Wordpress and other sites. It's an interesting exercise to try and create an aesthetically pleasing image from a portion of the shot you actually wanted. Sometimes it will show you a frame you didn't think would work, but the physical constraints of frames and pages and so on don't really exist online, and I'm a big fan of making the image shape be whatever works for the image. Let's face it, the field of view of the human eye is *way* larger than most shots, and (perceptually) without vignetting, barrel distortion etc, not to mention huge dynamic range, so any lens->film/sensor->digitization->reproduction pathway is going to seriously compromise/enhance what we *saw*. At the same time we unconsciously crop out all the clutter and noise and extraneous detail that suddenly is unpleasantly there in a captured image.

    Do it.
