 The
following is a reference / historical listing of the 70-millimeter
engagements of “Interstellar” in the United States and Canada. “Interstellar” was among two first-run films released in 2014 with 70mm prints for selected engagements. The Paramount-Warner Bros. release—directed by Christopher Nolan (“Dunkirk,” “Tenet”) and starring Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain and Michael Caine—opened November 5th. The 70mm prints of “Interstellar” featured Datasat audio and full-frame (2.20:1) imagery sourced from a mixture of anamorphic 35mm and IMAX. The duration of the engagements (measured in weeks) is included in parenthesis following the cinema name. CALIFORNIA Los Angeles — Cinerama Dome (2) Oakland — Grand Lake 4 (6) GEORGIA Atlanta — Cinebistro at Town Brookhaven 7 (1+) MINNESOTA Plymouth — Willow Creek 12 (10) NEW YORK New York — Cinema 1 (4) New York — Ziegfeld (2) ONTARIO Toronto — Varsity & VIP 12 (2) TEXAS Arlington — Studio Movie Grill Highlands 9 (1+) Austin — Alamo Drafthouse Ritz Twin (1+) Dallas — Look Cinemas 11 (1+) Dallas — Studio Movie Grill Royal Lane 8 (1+) Note that some of the presentations included in this listing may have been presented in 35mm (or DCP) during the latter week(s) of engagement due to contractual terms or print damage and the distributor’s unwillingness to supply a 70mm replacement print or because the booking was moved to a non-70mm-equipped auditorium within a multiplex. As well, the reverse may have been true in some cases whereas a booking began with a 35mm print because the lab was unable to complete the 70mm print order in time for an opening-day delivery or the exhibitor negotiated a mid-run switch to 70mm. In these cases, any 35mm portion of the engagement (or movement out of a branded auditorium) has been included in the duration figure.
